2012 Z9 with a matching year mercury 250 pro XS. This is my cousins boat and I'm not familiar with Nitro, need a little setup help.
It currently has a 24 tempest that is turning around 5600 RPM. The boat maxes out around 56 mph currently. Maybe it's just a Nitro thing, but compared to my Phoenix it has basically zero bow lift. Trimmed all the way down to trimmed all the way out it barely feels like it's changing and just runs flat.
I believe P2P is around 3" but I'll have to re-measure for him. It's also on the factory jackplate which is probably 6", could be more though.
I know that boat should be hitting upper 60s. Hoping somebody has the same setup and can give some insight on what they're running so we can adjust accordingly and try a few things.
Thanks
