I am finalizing my build on a new RT198P and I have a couple observations and questions. I just noticed that the 198P does not have a trim guage on the dash. I have always had a trim guage and was wondering why the omittion?
Anyone running the Mercury 115 Pro XS Four Stroke Command Thrust on the 198P? I was wanting to save a few bucks to upgrade electronics and TM (Ultrex hopefully) and was curious about the 115 perfomance as opposed to the 150. I don't need to go 60 so top speed isn't a big deal. My current Stratos 176xt with the 70 Yamaha two stroke will only do 35mph so I would assusme the 115 would perform better than that and I'd be happy with the choice.
Also, any opinions on the in dash mounted electronics? Are they harder to see and is an alternative mounting method preferred?
Any other thoughts are welcome.
Thanks again for your opinions and experience!
