Outlaw JP ??

[Meyers]

Guys,
I have a buddy that is going to repower his Gambler Outlaw with a 200 Pro XS. He has a T&H manual plate on it now that is probably 6 inches. He is considering a Hydraulic Plate and wants to know what setback should he run?

Thanks for the help!

i would go with the 8 inch hydraulic..the boat could run a 10...but then you get into maybe needing new cables...the 8 will be good for that rig...

Yup, start with a 8, he can can always add Bobs 2 inch spacers

i had a 10" bobs hydraulic on my 2003 Outlaw with a 2002 225 EFI...
the extra set back DOES NOT HELP THE OUTLAW....
the 6" bobs hydraulic will do fine....

Curious, what was the problem with the extra setback on the Outlaw?

I took the 5 off and added the 10 and it seems much better then before, especially out of the hole. Outlaw is pretty close to my Intim.

I am just guessing but I think all Outlaws were rated for a 200 so with the 225 on the back it probably behaved totally different. The EFI is a strong motor!

Had no issues with a 10" on my old Outlaw. Boat started out with a 200 2.5L, then a 225 promax,then a 250xs and sold it with a 225 proxs.

the extra set back DID nothing on mine to enhance the performance...only thing i could tell is that gave it more bow lift, but wasn't necessary because to get max speed, i would have to tuck the bow back down after it got on last pad...
