Owned a 2006 tr-186 with a 150 opti, great riding boat and built to last. My buddy has a 2005 882 with a 150 xr6. The 882 with the xr6 is a faster top end boat but it does not ride as well as the triton. It has been a great boat for him with no issues, the xr6 is a great motor. My vote is for the triton and I am sure my buddy would say the same.
