Location: Tinley Park, IL | If I was buying a Lund Pro V Bass 1875 I would get the Mercury 150 4-stroke for several reasons.
#1 High 40s to 50 for WOT is fast enough. I just bought an X-190 and I didn't get the 150 due being at 75% max HP. I went with a Yammy 175 4-stroke and I don't see how I need the extra 25 hp. So often, I can't even run max HP since it is too rough and I don't want to beat the crap out of the boat. I was on Green Bay for 4 days in July and only twice was the water ever calm enough to go WOT. And unless I am fishing a tournament, even if it's smooth I will still stick around 35-40 mi/hr. #2 I have great Mercury dealers around me while I have over an hour drive to the nearest Yammyy dealer. #3 A LOT of Pro V Bass boats are being sold with the 150 4-storke so I don't think you're going to take a hit with resale. #4 Everything I read says the 150 Merc 4-stroke is a GREAT motor.
Good luck. I don't think you'll go wrong with any of your choices. |
