Posts: 14 | My current boat is running a Mercury Optimax 200 2-stroke motor. Considering re-powering with the new Mercury Pro XS 4-stroke V-8 with digital throttle and shift. Anyone have any experience with this motor? Looking for both performance and reliability info. Thanks. | ||

Posts: 58 | i just got a 2020 200hp Pro XS this past spring on my new Alumacraft T-Pro 195. You will love this motor, the torque is unreal. the hole shot will keep up with or beat any 2 stroke out of the hole. its been amazing so far. | ||
