BG RTR Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 Looking at buying one. Has 115 merc on it. Advice appreciated! Quote
Super User Nitrofreak Posted December 24, 2013 Super User Posted December 24, 2013 Mine is a 90 , 170 TF , the 115 is under powered for the boat , mine is a Rude but the problem is that all the weight is in the back , when the live wells are full and you have a passenger , it is REALLY difficult to get on plane , there are a lot of prop options out there but I for me I hate to loose the top end speed , if she had a 150 GT , it would be an AWESOME boat !!!!!!!! I have had her for quite some time , normal stuff over the years have been replaced like batteries etc... The only 2 issues I have had were a gear select cable and an ignition switch , it's been a GREAT ride and can get to some pretty shallow areas . Quote
Sun Fish Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 I have a 1995 180FS w/ a Merc 115. It has its quirks but I love it for what it is, runs strong and puts me on fish. 1 Quote
