Thats awesome Dale. I had a 250 Proxs on my checkmate. Same powerhead as the XS motor. In the rating of an outboard horsepower wise they are allowed to call it the horsepower advertised as long as its within 10% of the actual horsepower. The ProXS motor actually had about 275 horse as compared to the regular 250 Optimax and its 250 Horses. You also don't have to run the higher 91 octane in it. When they repowered it was a very smart choice. Cant wait to hear what it does when all dialed in.

Hey David, he bought a pair of brand new 250XSs to get that warranty. The dealer he bought them from - my buddies at Boatmasters - are going to sell off all the remaining parts. It's a long story how this all came about, but he bought another 28 before I decided to sell mine, blew a powerhead the first day out, ordered the new 250XSs for it, then I sold him my 28, he sold the 28 he had bought w/ my 3.2 powerheads, and put the new 3.0/250 powerheads on my 28. That's the quick version of how my 28 got 3.0/250 powerheads after he bought it!

If by chance you decide to sell the D 33's I am interested.

Hey guys I have a 28 with 250sx engines, best top end speed is 104 it will constantly run 102 with 14-1/2 x 34 Merc 3 blade labbed cleavers. Do u think these other propellers would give me a bigger top end.

Dewalds for sure will. I gained 4 MPH over the Mercs you have on my 28.
