[Nitro 882]

I have a 2005 nx 882 with a 150 XR6 purchased new. I am retired and fish 3 to 4 times a week about 8 1/2 months a year. Most if the lakes I fish are less than 500 acres so there isn't a lot of long hard runs. The boat has been to Fla. 3 times and I have ran it hard on Lake Champlain at least once each year since I've owned it. There, just a little background. Bottom line----The motor has performed flawlessly and runs like a Swiss watch. I've changed the plugs once just because I felt it was time, not that it seemed to need it. I winterize and maintain the boat/motor myself. It's never been in the shop (knock wood).

I obviously can't vouch for the exact motor your looking at but mines been a peach.

Best of luck.
