    225 pro xs 4stroke on a 20 xd

    Anyone running this combo ? thinking about trading my '07 250XS with 1:62 sporty.
    Wondering what pitch prop and speeds folks ar gettin.
    I can get a deal on 225 vs. 250, also a 250 will require a sporty LU

    225 PXS should run decent, the V8 TM should be fine to 85-88 mph without issue, we have ran it faster but I dont recommend it due to safety concerns. The 250R would be my pick due to the sporty, especially since you are coming out of a 250xs sporty.

    Its about 30lbs heavier when you consider the weight of the 3L plus the 3 gallons of oil in the boat. Not enough weight to notice, especially if you switch to lithium.
