    Live well swamping boat

    2012 v175 combo here and same issue. Front auto works fine, when left on will fill faster than it can empty. Rear even on auto will eventually overflow. (Combo uses a stand pipe in the rear set water height. Was thinking of lowering the stand pipe length.) Not a great solution, but I have...

    fish and ski

    Getting on plane and time to speed seem faster. Holding in a turn is much better with motor trimmed. (original 19p Blackmax would blow out in all but the most gradual turns with the motor trimmed at all). WOT RPM when from about 5200 to about 5600. (I generally don't run there so not sure...

    fish and ski

    Just to be less boring, here are some pics from our recent tubing time. (we have a 90 Optimax on the V175 and it worked out really well with the correct prop - in this case, a 17p spitfire). We also have a StarFire hydrofoil on the motor, but that is probably no longer needed since we switched...

    Spitfire X7 15p On Mercury 90hp With Tracker V175 Wt

    the 17p spitfire WOT RPM was about 5600. I did lose about 3MPH top speed but the tradeoff in holeshot and holding in turns made it well worth while. I do not plan to go back to the 19p Black Max.

    fish and ski

    I have a tracker V175 combo (2012) and really like it. the newer ones are better (from a fishing standpoint) with larger livewells and rod storage, but I do really like mine. I used the ski pylon for the first time this year (pulling a 3 person tube) and it worked out really well. I am sure...

    2002 Mercury 90hp Prop Help/advice

    I have a tracker V175 Combo with a 90 Optimax motor. (2012 boat, 2011 motor) The boat came with an aluminum black max prop (19p) and while ok, it would blow out fairly easily on turns and while ok, was not great coming up on plane. With my boat would hit about 38mph at 5200RPM. I have...

    2011 Tracker Targa Wt18 Kicker

    I have a 2012 V-175 combo with a 9.9 Bigfoot kicker motor. It is clamped directly to the hull on the passenger side. I needed to get the 25" shaft to make it long enough to reach under the boat (it is not in the dip around where the 90hp motor is at). it is tiller steer and works great...

    2018 Pro Guide V 175 Combo Prop Testing

    I have a 2012 V175 combo with a 90 optimax on it. (gear ratio is different than your 115 so keep that in mind as well) It came with a 19p black max prop that would get me to about 37-38mph at 5200rpm. I don't really care about top speed as I find the Opti really loud when you get over about...

    Spitfire X7 15p On Mercury 90hp With Tracker V175 Wt

    Will be interested in your results. I have a 2012 v175 combo with a 90 optimax on it and just replaced my 19p blackmax prop with a 17p spitfire. Will be awhile before I can test it out, but will report back when I do. BTW 19p blackmax WOT RPM was 5200. Michael

    Battery Charger Location

    I mounted mine under the drivers console on the wall under the steering wheel. Trolling motor battery plugs into the charger. The main battery is charged by hooking the charger to the fuze block on the side wall under the steering wheel. If you need pics, just let me know. McLoki Sent from...
