    Skeeter Set Up Question ZX175

    I am completely redoing a 1994 ZX175 Skeeter, Carpet, Seats, Powerhead, all Wiring, Gauges and building a custom Alum. Dash something like a Gambler. I am wanting to know what size Jack Plate are you guys using on this boat, I was considering a 10 inch is this too much? By the way it has a 1993 2.5 mercury EFI. Thanks

    I also wanted to tell everyone how great this board is!!

    markiebud, do you still have this boat? I need to see some pictures of the windshield if you do, please. I have a customer looking for one and his doesn't have any on it.
    Thanks!!

    I have a 94 ZX175 with a merc 175hp. I have a 25p Tempest plus and am running 61-62mph. 4" jackplate. This thing really needs hydraulic steering as it's harder than hell to steer. Fun little boat though.
