    Question 05 201 Repower with a 250 SHO

    About to repower with a 250 Sho. Anyone with this setup or newer 201 mind sharing some performance numbers please. Also, if you have any prop recommendations, I am all ears, or should I say eyes! Thank you for any helpful responses!

    Awesome, I’m thinking the same next year with a Yamaha 250 4 stroke as well. Let us know how it runs. I saw a post a while back up that said the hull didn’t like the merc pro xs. Not at all sure why that would be, I just want dependability and no more 2 stroke.

    Also, is there a chance I could get a pic of your capacity sticker. Mine is totally faded out and I need to order a new one.

    Thanks

    I have an 03' 201 Pro XL DC. Replaced the HPDI in 2013 after 2nd blown power head. Love the 250 SHO. I turned a Mark Croxton worked 27" T-1 at 77mph perfect conditions. I'm running a stock 26 T-2 at 74mph in perfect conditions on the SHO. 73 all day long.
