Triton 19trx 2015 and up with 225

[dryhorn2]

Anyone have experience on this boat with the 225 ? Looking for pro's and con's. Thinking about upgrading to this model of Triton

I have a 2015, 225 pro xs with all the bells and whistles. I fish big water, small water, great around docks, 72mph running a 25p tempest plus.
Easy to trailer, easy to store. The 5 years I've owned it, I have never though about should I have bought a bigger one.

Does me fine, lots of storage, big front deck, I always have the wife up front fishing, and it's a dual console.

Enjoy

Jebass, what is your setup? I have a 2018 19trx Patriot with a 225 ProXS 2-stroke, 24p fury, 112 ultrex, hydraulic jack plate and two blades. I am getting 67-68 mph. I feel like I should be getting 72 like you. What is your ptp? Any tips would b much appreciated.

I run a stock 25p tempest plus. 3.5" ptp, 10" manual jack plate. Half tank of fuel. 112 ultrex and 4 battery. Gotta drive it after 68mph. I can get 72.
i don't have poles, I fish deep water most days. Water temp on lakes play a factor, I don't run wide open to often, but when I do, it's 72 on a humminbird gps.

Forgot to mention, It's a 225 pro xs 2 stroke with torque master lower unit. I don't carry much tackle , just the basics for small mouth,

Have you ever ran it with a 24 3-blade Fury?

Tempest plus prop gives better lift and performance on that hull

[Jebass]

Lots of bow lift for sure. Never tried anything else, Dealer has lots of experience and recommend that. Buddy runs same boat with a 4 blade trophy plus 25p, Says good acceleration, however runs 67-68. Also great boat control in rough stuff
He also tried a fury 3 blade 24p and never got over 70.

I may just be lucky on my setup and performance.

I have a 2014 19XS with 225 ProXS with a 24 Tempest and hydraulic jack plate. It’s a great boat, good ride and it runs. With a half tank of gas, 2 big men and all our tackle I have run 73mph on the GPS in 70 degree temps. If you have an opportunity to get a 19XS, I suggest you take it.....just sayin

[19trx Patriot]

Sounds like I need to try a 24 and 25 tempest.
