When my 250 let go it was at WOT. Trimmed out, the bow rode high, 22' aluminum bay boat. the oil in the remote tank ran low enough that the angle of the boat, high bow, kept the oil from tank...
Just an update since I got new info. called a dealer. Thy called the factory and asked about the stats. What is on line is wrong. Xpress said it's as fast as a H20B with a 115. Maybe a little faster
i would extend the deck back to the console
to plane 5.91 sec
0-20 mph 7.77 sec
this just doesn't sound right
Anyone have a review on this boat. I can't find any real world reviews. Only dealer sales pitch.
The performance bulletin looks horrible. I thought that hull with a 115 would perform way better...
mine was the same way
no speed gained, just a better ride. I did gain some speed when I added the Hyd jackplate, but not much.
boat listed to the left under speed
My dealer called G3. G3 sent someone to pick up the boat and bring it back to the factory. They ground off the tabs and installed the newer bigger tabs. boat ran fine after that.

found a 1999 merc promax 300 locally. don't know much about them but it has my intrest. not a 300x. anyone got any info on these? will it work on an alum. bay boat lol.
Got the word today, motor is toast. Something about input and output bearing on the crank were messed up along with the case and the crank shaft was broken in half. Looks like i'll have some parts...
i think it was a 17 or 18
I have the bay 22 DLX. No problems while fishing. Standing while driving is good. I just think the seat should be lower when sitting and driving.
I have the bimini top as well, love that thing. I...
Does anyone else dislike the leaning driving seat height? the top of seat is above the steering wheel. I find that when I sit to drive I have to lean over to reach the steering wheel. I was thinking...
FYI. I decided to rebuild the OX66 :)
played with the motor today. runs fine, but seems to be down on power a little. so i did a compression test
VST filter side top to bottom
20 psi
110 psi
110 psi
Starter side top to bottom...
I'm not sure my tank is 3 gallons. it takes a little more than one big jug of oil to fill it up
