Running a hydraulic jack plate? Ive heard that the 27 Tempest is a dog out of the hole. What RPMs are you seeing at WOT?
Already have. Ran it with a 25P Turbo ( the prop that came on it ). Holeshot was terrible ( 8-10 seconds ). Top speed was 68 to 70 at 5800 ish rpms. P2P is 3.5" below.
Hey guys,
Just purchased a new to me '04 201 pro xl with the 250 Optimax XS racing engine. Im going to be doing some upgrading to the boat but im looking for some direction, mainly...
what color is your boats interior? I believe the console is similar to the one im looking at. Id actually prefer a dual console...
So what is it about the hull that makes it less desirable in rough water?
Thanks for the feedback! It does have an 8" hydraulic jackplate, so im hoping that helps out with the performance and rough water ride!
Fellas,
Looking for honest, real world reviews of the early 2000's model 518VX. I took a test ride in one this weekend and looking to purchase this week. Curious about top end and rough...
Hey guys,
Im in the market for a new boat and a 2012 20 XS Elite really has my eye right now. I dont have any experience with Tritons, so im looking for good real world opinions...
So I take it youve fished Conowingo and Clarke?
a worked 25p Tempest plus for top end, and a 26 Bravo 1xs for all around performance.... I have the same hull. these are the only 2 props I will run.
:thumb up2:
So that cant be accounted for with a hydraulic jackplate?
What is the standard transom measurement, and what significance does it play with running a jet? Im new to the whole jet idea, so im not sure how the transom affects running a jet motor...
Has anyone looked into this? Most likely selling my glass boat due to relocating and being 2.5 hours plus from the nearest large lake or river. Theres plenty of smaller/more shallow rivers ( Upper...
well, what did you find? :popcorn:
Good enough comparison for me! How does she do in the rough stuff? I fish Erie a lot, and for example, I have a friend that runs a Stratos 201 Pro, and the bow of that boat is so light that its super...
Yessir! Love the look of the L boats, but for some reason, guys are having a hard time getting performance out of them like they could with the C boats... Not sure if that’s fact or bad rumor, but...
Ive been thinking about the C boats too! My local dealer has a pretty sweet Cup package with the new Merc 4 stroke pro xs....:beers:
I am looking at getting out of my Z21 and potentially into an '09 Z520. What differences could I expect in speed, handling, fishability, and overall ride if I went with the Z520?
721 price is pretty regularly advertised, but I never see the price of a 920 advertised. Any insight?
Fellas,
Looking to switch from brand “ R “ to a Bird. I’ve been eyeing up a 721 since it’s a great bang for your buck rig, but not too sure about fishing from a slightly narrower front...
Yessir! The man's got his hands in all of it....
Im a bit surprised! I thought he wouldve followed Hunter to Phoenix, along with Chris Lane following Bobby to the birds... I suppose JM mightve sweetened the deal if those guys stayed with one of his...
Any word on Fletcher Shryock and Fred Roumbanis? This whole situation has my attention. Makes me wonder what the hell is going on at Legend's HQ
