    Neal's old XB21 is for sale

    The ad says "small wreck" but it involved two vehicles, a boat, and a large flatbed lawnmower trailer that broke loose and knocked down Neal's truck and boat like bowling pins. :LMAO: Neal's truck and boat were totalled in the incident. The boat/mtr/trailer was then sold at auction by the...

    Lifeline #160

    Finding a decent used Lifeline vest was hard to find and last week I ordered a discounted #160 direct from Kent at Lifeline. Paid less than retail and less than some used ones you see on ebay or scream and fly. I got it today. Very well made and fits like a glove. I got it for the...

    What's up with my prop? Bravo I XS 30

    I have extreme blow-out on my prop. I bought the prop used and it has not been worked except for the addition of four PVS holes (which I've plugged). The motor has to reach into the upper 4k rpm range just to break the boat over. After that it grabs, r's drop and off I go. It seems the...

    Headlight adjustment - how?

    My headlights appear to be adjusted correctly pointed forward; however, one is higher than the other. As the adjustment knob is turned, it moves both lights up/down. How do I adjust the up/down setting on one light so that both lights are matched on the vertical movement? Thanks Duane

    Gas reading fluctuates between empty and the correct reading

    I have the VDO guages, Merc Monitor, and the Merc fuel/oil harness from the gas tank to the engine computer. Lately, the Merc monitor will all of sudden warn of "low fuel". A few minutes later, it is like the fuel level shows normal. (engine is 250ProXS on 2+2) I checked the connections -...

    Here are a few videos from my two days at the FastPass Rally in Clifton TN. The vids are filmed from my phone so they aren't that good. They feature Neal's XB21, Eric Petty's white Stroker, and Nathan's red Stroker. Joe's SS is in there in one or two vids. I didn't get hardly any vids of...

    Tail stand?

    I've seen some photos of some of your boats that look like they're doing a wheelie or tail stand. They are XB2002s. Can a XB21 do that?

    If you have an XB21 and have a clunk in your lower unit, you might have a. . .

    hi everyone, I've had my XB21 for about a year now. I've recently experienced a hard "clunk" in my Engine or Sportmaster when I'd come off of pad and goose the engine to get ahead of the following wave. When I'd trailer the boat and right before I'd ease up on the bunks, it would "clunk"...

    CMC Jackplate question

    I have a CMC powerlift jackplate. Last week, it started making these awful sounds like there was a lot of friction in the up/down motion. I got the manual out and says to make sure the large nylatron washers are slightly loose, not too tight, not too loose. I slightly loosend the top bolts...
