Thanks!!

All I know is the Carbon will run Active Target and Active Imaging 3 in 1 transducers. There is also a difference in the specs on the display, but I do not know what that is.

I just picked up a new Carbon 12 on sale at Bass Pro. I am planning to use it at my helm, networked with a Gen3 12. Are there any direct comparison videos of the two displays? I have looked, but...

I called Ranger, and spoke to their supervisor in rigging. He suggested a 8" jack plate. So I installed a TH Marine Atlas hydraulic plate, with two 8' Power Pole Blades. I did all the work myself....

I am a new owner of the Pro XS.
I replace the water/fuel separator filter, but are there any other fuel filters to change?
If so, where are they located? I cannot find any?


Thanks in advance!

I have a 2019 Z185, and I live in Michigan. I store the boat inside during the winter months, but it is not heated storage. Should I store it with an empty tank, or fill the tank and add stabilizer?...

I want to easily remove my outboard motor for winter storage. I have a Merc Optimax Pro XS 150 2-stroke with hydraulic steering. I recently saw a video on replacing two Verados, and those motors had...

I just ordered a MotorMate! Thanks for the advice!

Hence my question. Should I invest in one of the other types, like a Motormate?

cmbtvet, Same kind I have now! Maybe I should just stick with it? ��. It’s not broken.

Currently I have one of those square tubing type engine supports that I have been using on my Z185, but I’ve been looking at the Motor Mate style. Since I have added a 8” jack plate recently,...

Transom Saver! Dangit!

I added a jack plate and power poles to my Z185 this weekend!!! Super excited, but realized I will no longer be able to use that not so good square tubing transom saver that...

Just placed the order for a new jack plate for my 2019 Z185.
Some questions:

Should I order the bolt kit from TH Marine?
Can I re-use the same bolts that now mount the motor? (Might be a dumb...

I am seeing some pretty decent prices on the black from iMarine! Are they pretty reputable?

Thanks for the input! I wipe my boat down every time I load it, but I am curious about what most people think about the black.

Would you go black, or is the black harder to maintain?
Would match my boat great, but? 🙂

Since I know nothing about props, what is the difference between a 23p and a 22p?
I have the basics, the boat moves 23" versus 22, but that's all I know.

What’s the difference between a plus 23 versus what I have? I know nothing about props!

I have a Merc 150 Optimax Pro XS 2 stroke, and I am running a Tempest 3 blade prop. 14 5/8” x 22. Do you think I will have to change it if I add the 8” jack plate?

I've been told by the rigging guys at Ranger that if I add a hydraulic jack plate to my Z185, first it needs to be a 8" setback, and second, I will have to change out the prop. Anyone else have that...

I have been advised by the rigging guys at Ranger that I would need to add a jack plate with an 8"setback for my Z185. They also said I would need to change my prop if I add the plate. I have no idea...

See new thread.

Looking to add a jack plate to my Z185. I’ve been reading about Bob’s and Atlas. Which should I buy, and why?

Messed up when I dropped off my Ranger Z185 for storage. Got distracted talking to a friend, and didn’t disconnect the surge brake safety cable! Snapped it when I drove away. I thought I hadn’t...

I just purchased a Vesselview Mobile Unit, connected it to my brand new Mercury Optimax 150 Pro XS. Everything went fine. Got it installed, and it worked perfectly by just turning the key without the...
