Title: New Trx 18 w/150L Mercury
Post by: sticks on May 30, 2019, 09:29:24 PM
Almost bought a 1880 Vexus.....dealership dropped the ball. Took a week to get back to me on the financing! In the mean time....was hearing a lot of grumbling about that 1880 only running high 40's with the 115! I then switched back to my original plan of the Triton 189 TRX w/ Mercury 150L. Got a approval on my financing and deposit made! Anybody tell me what this motor will run on this boat MPH wise? Thanks

Not for sure but I think that's a 60 mph set up.

Concur. Trimmed out correctly, I would think low 60s is possible with a light load.

I'd bet 58-63 depending on how it's loaded and set up.

Nice boat, congrats.
