- Hey everyone! Check out my new Excel Catfish Pro 21 with a 150HP Suzuki outboard. This 21-foot, 72-inch-wide beast is basically a 2172 big jon boat with a side console. We just hit the lake, and at full throttle, we reached a top speed of 44 mph, cruising comfortably at 38 mph.
It's not as fast as my old SeaArk Procat, but it performs great! I might try a 4-blade prop in the future to see if it handles differently. For now, I’m ready to catch some fish and maybe take some of you along!
Thanks for watching! Like, comment, and subscribe for more. Let's go fishing! - Sport
The memory of your fish finder and gps can draw on batteries
That is possible.
That is a good looking boat
Thanks!
150! man thats pretty big!
Ohh yeah! Hit me up I will take you for a ride in it!
Did you install a master cutoff switch to the battery. That should end the parasitic draw. Great vid on the boat, thanks for sharing!
I have not. Thanks
Bill, rewire your bow & stern lights to your accessory battery instead of your starting battery. This way you can fish all night long and you won’t run your starting battery down. 👍
I am going to do that once I get an accessory battery.
what prop are you running and what rpm range is your wot?
Its a 3 prong prop that is hitting around 5400 RPM max. I don't know pitch or brand. I need to have a talk with my dealership on getting a 4 blade.
got mine finished breaking in yesterday evening and topped out at 49 with very high rpms 5800ish. was very pleased with it as ive always heard suzuki was the least powered and torqued of the outboards

@@mit3000gt95 Very nice! I hear lower pitch props will do that? I think mine is a 23 pitch.
@mit3000gt95 Absolutely not true. Suzuki's are the highest torque'd motors. They are the only engine that can run a 2.5 gear ratio. That much torque + the 2.5ratio allows them to spin upto 16.5 inch diameter props.
Run a 16x 24pitch prop on a 150 Merc and it would take an eternity to get on plain...
What prop are you running?
Its a 3 propeller prop. I need to look up the rest of the numbers. Maybe 21.5 pitch.
You bought another boat or did you just upgrade?
Traded my bay boat for this one. I plan on keeping this one a long time.
Solid knock going into gear why?
Maybe I went to fast? They all do it. Check out my playlist of outboards doing the same here: czcams.com/play/PLpxT3d4CcdqBeN_xJ25tUt7mNABIdDS4D.html
I am loving these Suzuki’s. Nice looking motor, reliable good warrant. Ahhhhh the Japanese. Ya got to love their work. Well……. except for the Pearl Harbour incident. But I think they have seen the error of their ways. 😅😂🤣
Very quiet too! I need to get me a troll mode switch too. I have no room for a kicker and I’m heavy current my trolling motor is useless. I missed a good Walleye opportunity once because of fast current!
Top speed?
46 is the most I have seen in perfect conditions (5400 RPM). 44 is normal top end and 38ish is the cruising speed (~4500 RPM if I remember right, maybe less).
@@TNRVG what prop you running there bud? On my merc 150 right now im currently running a 4×14.5×23pitch mercury fury 4 blade. Got 49mph on my gps.and with a 3×14.5×21pitch i got 51mph. My rpm gauge wasnt working right from the begining. Its an analog gauge.
Slowzuki!
😂
@@TNRVG is the Suzuki worth trading my mercury in for 150 for 150?
I will have to let you know at 2000 hours hah (buddies merc is at 2000 hours)
@@TNRVG im on my 3rd year on my merc, just do maintinence and keep on riding! I also work my motor hard! Pull home log rafts. Most logs i dragged home was 23 logs. Run it hard rn im currently running a 23pitch fury 4 blade.
