    Talon on stratos 200 proxl pics

    Has anyone mounted talon on Stratos 200 pro xl?

    We installed a pair via the sandwhich mount. My hold shot is gone (03 200 pro w/2013 225ho Etec 26rakerII, 6" slidemaster jackplate)

    I have on a stratos 294XL. They are awesome! Of course I had a jackplate and I used the universal bracket. Hole shot suffered some but very minimal.

    I have a jackplate, the guy who installed them used sandwhich. Feels it much stronger mount

    The Talon bracket is incredibly strong... You would be amazed.... But anyway, can you open up some of the vent holes on the prop (if they aren't already)? Can you post a pic from the rear of the boat?

    By the way, the 200 is an awesome boat. Had a 2008, and loved it, same motor...

    I have a 19 ft champion with dual talons and a 36 volt troller. Added quite a bit of weight to a boat with a good holeshot. I have the jackplate brackets and have moved the talons up as high and as far fwd as they can go. I also added a holeshot plate and have been living with a slow holeshot for the last year. I will be sending my spare prop to Mark Croton to be repitched to a 24 and this should cure my issues. I currently run a worked 25 p tempest. Hope this info helps!
