I saw you last night on Jefferson / Hall Rd (m-59) area.

I was the white van that speed up next to you to see if it was your boat.. lol

Nice looking rig, hows the speed with the 250xs Power so far?

Looks like an awesome ride :thankyouthankyou:

Outboards on these big boats look awesome,

I am running 3 -225 efi merc. & love them.
I dont think mine would come out of the water without the third motor.

250 xs motors are the greatest, Hoping to change mine to 3-300 xs motors next year & get into the 100mph.
May sell outboards over the winter.

Does yours lean outside on the turns?
I found that werd, but now driver threw it.

Keep posting the numbers & remember to raise those motors, only way of getting max. speed.
Watch your water & temp gauges,,

Keep it coming, we are loving it!

I would like to get over that way to boat, but heading north to T.C. this weekend, hang out for the weekend, might like it enough to get out of this area!! everyone enjoy the weekend. be carefull with the speed.

thanks for compliments. so far i'm only seeing 86 but i haven't stayed in her that long and my effin jack plates keep raising and lowering by them selves so till i figure how to lock them down i'm timid about pushing her too far! i know at 2" above bottom i still had 15psi at 82? and i'm not there on rpm's either,i need about 500 more so a little tweaking to go. too bad weather is going fast. but i sure used the beans outta her the last 10 days!

86 mph is great news :)
15 psi is good water pressure.

Looking good :whistle:

i need to figure out how to lock down my jack plates though? it scares me, i pulled boat yesterday and motors raised an inch on their own? thats three days in a row they moved either up or down or one each way? possesed?lol

Can you drill a hole, bolt them & set the jack plates?
You can always move them up/down from the motors ?

Easy fix if the are set in the correct location.
You are getting some good numbers with only 500hp.
Great job!
How do they do on gas??
I have always heard that the xs motors are great on gas.


Keep posting, great reading,,,,
PS: Summer is coming to an end up north, dam!
