    I just hung a 200 PRO XS V-8 on mine, but it has a largely different weight balance layout than OE ......it's amazing wish I would have done it when they came out

    yeah that is my question long term affect on .100 hull and 3 liter.
    boat has had 2.6 liter from beginning thinking it might see a change over to a 3 liter merc, maybe.
    opportunity maybe soon to get my xpress I had for years back. price of new boats not a option for me I refuse to pay
    more than I gave for my house. guess showing my age.

    Well mine came with a 2.6l on it and the 3 braces were just starting to crack. So I fixed them and added 2 more like the newer hulls, then I braced the top plate and move the fuel fill to the top. I also added top braces to the transom. So if it were me I would add the 2 braces at a minimum. CJ
