    Caracal?

    Anyone running a Caracal with a 225 verado? If so what kind of performance are you getting?

    225 Sho. Still learning to drive it. 70 was my top -with full load of gear, 2 passengers, and 50 gallons of fuel. Not sure if this helps. What are you seeing in the verado?

    I haven't personally ran a verado powered Caracal but should be right in the 70 mph range from experience with Verado on other BCB models

    I personally do not own one but was just curious to what one would do with a verado. From what I've seen I think that would be a good combo.. Just don't know of anyone with that particular set up.

    We do not suggest it due to the weight of the combination.

    That's a shame bc from what I've read the verado is one heck a motor. I currently have a 250 pro xs and so far has served me very well, just looking down the road for a possible combo.

    Maybe Mercury will have 4 stroke Pro XS 225 in the future? I had heard some noise of Mercury doing this a while back. Probably just rumors though.
