to get the boat to run clean on pad

tail lower than the cowl |

"Beautiful Burgundy MF with Black

Best riding bassboat I have ever been
in. Great in rough |
|
| |
water. I took the 2" spacers
off (that I had originally), and |
|
| |
went to the Trophy prop to help get the
rpms back close to |
|
| |
where they should be in 110 degrees plus
(Lake Mead). |
|
| |
The Trophy was also a much better
handling prop than the |
|
| |
Tempest. The extra 2 mph was not
worth giving up the hole |
|
| |
shote and hard handling." |

Can't speak about |

WOT because I am in the very early
stages of the break-in |
|

process. I love the additional space of
the newly designed |
|
| |
Champion 196. It is the most
stable fishing platform I have |
|
| |
ever fished in. I went from the 150 Merc
EFI on my '98 |
|
| |
Champion (further down this page), to
this Yamaha. So far |
|
| |
I am really impressed. I am amazed
at how quiet the |
|
| |
Yamaha is compared to the Merc. The
power of this motor |
|

also seems to be impressive. I
also added a hotfoot to this |
