    818 performance number?

    What kind of prop, and speeds are people running on the 818 with the mercury 175? Think about pulling the trigger on one.

    818 175 ProXS with 22 Tempest and manual jack 65mph
    now with dual PowerPoles, lithium batteries and loaded! 61mph.

    if I can suggest one thing, get a hydraulic jack plate. It the one thing I wish I would have added.

    I get similar numbers with my 175 SHO and 22 SHO prop. Couldn't agree more with the hydraulic jack plate!

    What sort of PTP are you guys running with the Tempest? And what RPM's are you seeing?

    Honestly never measured PTP. I have the manual jackplate and my dealer set it up for me. I can tell you my motor is mounted thru the 3rd hole and the jackplate is all the way up.

    Trimmed out, Im turning 5600. According to Mercury, 5400-6000 is consider WOT.
