The timer hasn't worked on my boat since almost the time that I took delivery of it and I...

I drained the whole oil tank... there was some water in there... i'll get it checked by my dealer...

Hey guys,

So the other day I went out and before my trip I put oil in my tank, then the people I was taking out showed up... I left to go meet them and left my oil cap off... I ran my boat all day...

Not sure why he only ran that boat up to 72, but most guys running the Evo's are getting mid-high 70's... it's a pretty quick boat...

Roy,

It'll be different for everyone because loads differ. I think i'm at 2.5" below pad on my 200 Pro XL and 225 Pro XS. I would keep doing what you're doing until you lose pressure or speed...

I had a feeling thats what the issue was... When I changed the filter, the old filter was brown... I admit, it had been a while since I had it changed, but man...

I was tripping the breaker. As for the timer, I might have to pull the panel and check to see if the fuses are there...

Hey guys,

I'm having some issues with my livewells...

First is that my passenger side livewell won't stay on for more than a minute or two before blowing the fuse. So I have to keep going...

Thats the red capped filter on the side correct?

I used NGK plug IZFR6J and gapped them at about .040... as for torquing them I went as far as I could while still easily torquing... I didn't tighten them a crazy about just until it got a little...

Hey there,

I have a 225 Pro XS and its been giving me some crap recently. I move down to Florida to expand my guide service to the Orlando area lakes.

Once here I filled up and I noticed the...

I'm on my second Stratos 200 Pro XL and I love my boat. I fish the Great Lakes and thats about it. It gets rough here... really rough... and I haven't had a single problem with my boat in rough...

Hey everyone...

I'm just on here to let you know, they pictures of the Evo's do not do it justice. We had the black and white one with the Mercury at Wonderland Marine's Open tournament here in...

How sweet would a 200 Exolution be? Wider deck, same great speed, and a 250 rating? I think I dreamt one up last night...

I've had 2 fish go on me in 3 years in a Stratos... Both were badly hooked by co-anglers and the fish survived till almost weigh-in time.

When it gets hot, it is important to ice your fish down....

Not true... talked to my rep the other day and we have some cool things coming from Stratos for the 09 model year...

I fish Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie 3-4 times a week from mid April-November... In 1.5 seasons... yes... my boat did develop cracks... small ones that have been repaired...

Fact is, I see many...

Chris,

It's nice to see you lurking around here and knowing you love that boat.

Here is my .02 cents on the 200 Pro XL... I have had 2 so far and loved them both. Currently I have a 07 200 Pro...

More than likley your pumps are loose or they housings are cracked. I had that problem last year. At the same time, the fuse for my automatic bilge had gone out, so I never knew I had water in...

Doug,

When you gonna trade in tha Blazer and get a REAL boat for this big water up here bud...

Jose

Nice boat...

I'm not trying to start anything... but the spelling... c'mon...

I know some people don't have the time to sit down and write everything nicely and correctly, but a little would go...

The 06 and before models had an extra storage compartment up front. So instead of one big one, you got 2 medium ones... There was actually more storage in the olders ones.

The gauge layouts are...
