Hello,
I just purchased a new 2012 Merucury 200 Pro Xs to put on my 1997 Bullet 21xd. I purchased the boat last May. This was a one owner boat that was in great shape. I was just wondering how good will the 200 Pro Xs run my boat? I hope to have it up to the mid 70's its is coming with a 25 Tempst. I need any recomendations on motor height and type of prop. I appreciate all your help!!

This was my first time to drive a Bullet. I was really suprised at the performance of this 21XD with a 200 Optimax. I was expecting it to be way underpowered (and I guess it is by most standards) It has a 14" RapidJack and a 27 Trophy, 109 Motorguide trolling motor, gas tank was full, two people (460# total) and nothing else in the boat. The hole shot was as good as any boat I have ever been in, I did not get to string it out real good but I got 76.2 gps @ 5650 rpm with 25psi water pressure. This boat is as clean as I have ever seen a boat this old. So after all that said, I will be a Bullet owner real soon, will post pics when I get it.</td></tr></table>
Did this boat just have a regular 200 opti on it or was it the racing opti? I would say that, that boat you road in and mine are pretty close to the same weight.
That 94 21xd has a stock 200 optimax, not the 200xs.

Thats sounds great to me I hope to get the same results. Once break in is over what type to set up do you all think I should go with?
Ok I am getting my boat back tommorrow!! I need to some Ideas on the setup for this rig? I would appreciate all the help.
