    XB21 Guys with tourney load

    10” setback and experience with props. I don’t tourney fish but require 75 lbs of lead to run. So it’s similar to fishing gear I assume. I run my lithium trolling batts up front. Promax requires more weight up front and rear of boat lighter to go faster...like to be vented to 5000ish XOB...

    Just purchased XB2003

    I would opt for 24 V and a single lithium trolling batteries if budget allowed. If you have a trolling motor already, I would opt for lithium batteries before a new trolling motor if performance is your main concern...

    300R XB2003

    Put a set of lithium trolling batteries in the nose, moving cranking battery to front of rear passenger storage box. run a promax prop that has a ton of bow lift. Weight distribution will be better than with 2.5. Lithium batteries and prop tech today didn’t exist in 1989 when these were made

    2005 XB21 ProSport setup and prop?

    I think even pitch promax have more lift may want to try 26 also

    98 xb2003 with 2005 2.5 xs

    2.5 xs is not as strong as your 225 promax, my 250 is not as strong as his new 300.... That’s why I said the Xb21 will be faster. Not by a lot but 5 mph or more.

    98 xb2003 with 2005 2.5 xs

    300xs Xb21 vs xb2003 2.5 xs? For sure Xb21 will win topend... that’s a 100 mph combination. Don’t see 2.5xs being a 100 mph combination on a 2003... maybe I’m wrong... my Xb21 250 set up for topend is 95+, 97 down river. 90 setup to be quickies, 93 downriver..

    98 xb2003 with 2005 2.5 xs

    Your 2+2 depending on motor will likely end up faster and quicker than your xb2003

    New Mercury V6

    250 or 300 opti or v8 both perform well/ similar. The v8 has very good manners.... I want to upgrade motors.

    Guidance for newbie

    Make sure left to right balance is correct. If you weight 200 you better have 200 lbs on the left side...

    Guidance for newbie

    Ps also... not outta motor. Likely setup and driving is all that’s needed. When I first moved to an allison it took me a whole summer to figure out setup and driving and get into the 80s...

    Guidance for newbie

    Lchunt- 70s is transitional area where you first start to having to drive an allison. It’s where balancing your load and motors height becomes important. Any load and setup should go to 70 with minimal effort....... You are in for a treat. Get the balance, motor height and some time behind...

    2 + 2 vs 2 seater. My take and setup/speed questions on the 2 + 2

    You need to measure prop to pad. It is the best way to verify where your motor actually is. All motors are not mounted in the same holes.

    2 + 2 vs 2 seater. My take and setup/speed questions on the 2 + 2

    I have driven several 2 seaters on occasion but own a 2+2. I feel the boat is more responsive and gives better feedback than the 2 seater as the rearward seating position seems to give less feel to the driver. I have 10" setback and run approx 1" above the pad 250 pro XS 1.75 gears I have...
