    1993 Stratos 201 Pro

    Hey guys, I have a couple questions about my "new to me" stratos 201 pro with 175 Johnson Fast strike.

    1. What propeller do you guys suggest me use for this engine? I notice that my edges on my tri blade prop are rolled and chunked up.

    2. What did yall do for storage space for your fishing tackle on the boat?

    3. Are there any cool modifications that I should do to my Stratos. I have already added all brand new electronics to it.

    Thanks so much,

    Jeffrey Brown

    Back then they was rigged by the Dealer.
    Minds came with out a engine.
    Bought boat at one Dealer.And engine at a other. I bought a 200hp motor as I didn't fish tournaments.
    Most tournaments had a 150 hp limit and most boats was 18ft then.
