    SKEETER/MERCURY

    Trying to set up a skeeter zx190 with a Pro max 175. Starting with a 25 Yamaha T1. Plenty slip, falling off pad , no fuel mileage.

    Sounds like the motor is too high or you have a poorly repaired prop. Yamaha T1 runs efficient.

    That motor is a 2.5 liter block . A smaller dia prop would probably run a little better . Like a tempest/ fury or trophy .

    I'm sorry, I have a 2009 Skeeter zx 190 with a 2007 Mercury 175 Pro XS, not a pro max!
