2. sounds incredible
3. goes like fury.

Mercury pro xs was designed specifically to meet all the key kpi’s of the superseded legendary 2 stroke optimax product for power , performance and weight . This engine has ticked all those boxes
No outboard performs like Mercury Pro XS®, The new V8 4.6L has the muscle to out-accelerate and out-run the competition
Superior acceleration from performance-inspired quad-cam design and Transient Spark Technology
Optimized
Exhilarating top speed with Pro XS performance calibration
Lightweight for maximum performance
Maximum fuel efficiency from Advanced Range Optimization and closed-loop fuel control.
Enhanced driving experience with Adaptive Speed Control
Hot buttons
4.6 litres - no replacement for displacement
Lightweight - XL is only 234kg !! Amazing power to weight
Integration with electronics - cruise control , troll control, and fuel monitoring all on one touch screen

Transient Spark Technology
Mercury’s proprietary Transient Spark technology, boosts torque by as much as 7% during hole shot by optimizing spark timing and fueling, gets boats on plane quickly. When the throttle body goes to the immediate wide open setting .. the ecu advances the spark timing and enrichens the fuel until the hull get up on plane. The ecu then return to its normal MAP of operation
So many other things
Easy access maintenance door
Industry leading 85 amp alternator
6 year warranty
Advanced midsection for virtually no vibration
Maintenance free valve train - Sport
Money can’t buy you happiness... but it can buy you horsepower.....horsepower makes you happy....
Happiness and horsepower start with h that works for me
What a BEAST of an Engine !!
Great Re-Power Selection !!!
No stopping you guys now, once you can really let loose !!!
Great to see you boys back on the water.
And what a beast the Merc is.
Its incredible how far outboards have come.. You fellas have a animal great fun.. Cheers from the Chesapeake Bay
Sounds nice when she spools up. Also nice and quiet at cruise. Makes my old Yamaha 150 2stroke look like a slouch!
These engines aren't boosted
Very nice boat and outboard!
She's got some speed 👍 awesome set up
love it , the V8 at its best
What a ripper. Good stuff.
Killer setup. Great shout out out to the techs who rigged this up👍🏻
What a weapon Winga cheers 👍👍
Incredible performance! Hopefully it’s as reliable as the Edencraft. 👌 👌 👌
Great sound
Looks awesome
It beautiful 🤩
Well done lads
LOVE IT GUYS!!!!!!!!!!! :)
BLOODY AWESOME!!!!!!!
Beautiful boat as you walk that with that mercury
I’ve been talking about buying a motor that expensive for 12 yrs.
Awesome vid
What a bloody weapon
i like the roller trailer!
Well done guys great addition can't wait to see you go over the boat can you also do a part on operating a recent release sounder not too many videos around sounder use in westernport cheers keep up the great vids
We can mate. The sounder in this boat isn’t exactly recent but Tilly has a pretty new lowrance which we can go through.
@@YouFishTV THIS IS CRAZY THIS CRAZY! No folks, this is nuts, this rocket behind your boat is NUTS. Thanks for sharing. Grtz from Belgium.
That was cool guys thanks
When I rebuild the 565l I think I'm gonna get me one of these. What a beast.
buy evolút9mñ 552
BEAST
It's so much better this time around the boat ramp was way to busy last time.
Seeing Stony Point boat ramp almost makes me cry... Hopefully I should be able to get back there soon.. #RopeNecklaceForDan
Nice video
Great video tight lines
Need an updated video this motor. With all the figures and prop data. I need to know 🤣
Man I want one of these things.
That thing absolutely hammers, love a big merc howling through the water.
Damn, not even the covid bugs can follow that boat !
thats crazy
Wow, what a beast!
Haha sick motor yeeou!
Just the sound of that engine is different. For some reason it just sounds smoother. That could be from not pushing the throttle more forward yet.
Like to see you follow up with this. Seems like how much fuel are you burning an hour and what kind of distance are you getting out of a full tank of fuel.
I was thinking the same thing. What a different, but very cool sound from such a compact V8 setup.
Nice!! What prop did you guys go for?
I think it moved a little when you started it up 😂
Definitely😂
You know what they say mercury will get you there faster but Yamaha and Suzuki will get you back every time
All Major brands are pretty reliable now days. They are in more of a performance war than anything.
You guys could pitch the prop up a bit and get some more top end.
Always an expert on here...
Now all you need is a floating Shell or BP station on the bay and a platinum fuel card.
Day trip to King Island soon guys. lol
Thats a horse awesome.
What prop were you runnings - goals to build a boat around one of these donks
Great video! 😊 Are you guys still happy with the engine? Is it reliable? I just purchased a Mercury 200 Pro XS and it’s a 2020 model.
Love it. 350 hours no issues.
góod motoré
Dave Standing? It looks to me like he's sitting.
Wow
Does that mean you can only drive boat writhing 5 kms of home or the bot ramp has to be within 5 ks
Thats proper...
The adrenaline would be pumping! Love it!
Very good. You don't know how much a yamaha 40hp and 30hp long leg 4tienpos used 2018 walk thanks
Mate that thing can fly, what camera are you filming with winga?
Just an iPhone 11pro. All our gopros are off in regional vic getting used.
YouFishTV that’s pretty sick quality
METRO MELBOURNE (under step 2)
Australian Sailing is happy to announce that single handed sailing or with someone (maximum 5 household members) from your household bubble is now permissible as part of their 2 hours of exercise within an unpowered vessel. You must adhere to the following:
- This is allowed in an OTB dinghy.
- This is allowed in a yacht that does NOT have a motor. If your yacht has a motor you cannot use it for sailing exercise. This applies even if you do not turn your motor on.
- The 2 hours includes travel to and from the activity
- The 2 hours includes rigging and de-rigging
- You must stay within your 5km radius
- You must wear face masks while on land
- You must keep 1.5 meters distance from others
Boat yards - We are currently getting clarification on exactly what activities will be permissible under the safety inspections and maintenance criteria. As soon as we have this detail we will update the Victorian sailing community.
I think you will find that has been clarified and boat ramps are now open and powered vessels allowed as long as it’s under 2 hours and within 5km of home. Have a look at our Facebook page, there’s some up to date updates there.
That sucks. You may as well not bother. It's a fucken wonder they dont include boat cleaning time in the 2 hours also. Anyway, I'm not in Melb so it might seem better than nothing to you guys. cheers.
You’re right it does suck. We’re far from ok with it.
😃👍🚤🎣🎣🐟🐠 Cool episode 🇦🇺🎣🐟
Don’t forget your kill switch
Which mask works better? The scarf or the traditional mask?
I have a DT150S two stroke 2,7L V6 with 150 hp on a 16 feet boat.....think IT will go fast?have not tested it yet,but i will soon or in the spring...yours did about 84 km/h but i expect mine to do about 55-60 knots …the boat weighs about 300 kg and the Suzuki about 213 kg...i amplified the transom very strong so it would take this engine😁😁😍😍Ohh...the prop is 3-14 1/4 inch and 20 pitch...
I would think 80kph give it take friends on the hull
@@YouFishTV it did 42 knots😁😉
oxe disel ouytbard more rañge
How fast was the boat going
What size prop did you run on it
You guys are crazy, that speed so close to the 200 metre posts? once a swimmer passes them then you may be up for manslaughter chargers.
Good thing they are in a fast tidal Muddy estuary PORT where no swimmers would be swimming
May be lighter but how does it go on fuel
What Suzuki did you have on this boat before repower with this mercury?
115 hp!
@@jimmycline4778 What top speed did you Get with a 115hp Suzuki ?
😍😍😍😍😍
Shark can’t get you now!
Try Avgas in it now - you won’t be disappointed.
You would be in Tassie in the first 10 minutes
Haha yeah before it blows up
do you guys not have center consoles over there like a contender ? that's LOW hp for Amercian boating
What was the max kmph
Hola buenas tardes como está hombre muy lindo Dios guarde
How many kg the Boot with the Engine ?
Did this guy just say 94 and 1/2 Miles Per Hour? No Way!
I am more impressed when they install four 400HP motors on a 30’ boat. 1600 HP is steamship level almost.
My favorite is the HCB Estrella with 5 of the 7 Marine 627's. 3100+hp? Makes me smile.
@@Yohann67 it's still slow though.
Hey guys any updates on the motor? I’m looking at upgrading from a set of 150hondas seriously looking at the 200 v8’s or 200v6’s game fishing application.
Loving it so far. 250 hours in and going beautifully. Great performance and economy
@@YouFishTV thanks for the feedback, I’ve got twin 200hp v8 pro xs going on my sailfish s8 in September.
What is the size of the boat ?
Congratulations. You got a Squid...
What would use more a 8v 300hp 4 stroke or a 4v 100hp 2 stroke? Lets say both of mercury
1⁰0 hp eltr⁸c outbard
What’s it like on fuel
What prop and top rpm ?
With 6 years warranty how can you go pass it
You still love it ?
;-)
Top Speed ?
How did you go out im getting crazy i need to find a way please let me know how
YAMAHA.... King of 4 strokes. MERCURY a close second.
MERCURY made the best old school 2 strokes.... Impervious to corrosion.
YAMAHA engineers almost all of TOYOTA'S engines.
Both great engines no doubt about it. Can’t say Yamaha have really advanced a lot in the last decade though. This engine is by far the best performer in its class. Bit of a no brainer.
@@YouFishTV When you have the whole commercial sector on board the formula shouldn't need any drastic advancement unless government mandate dictates otherwise.
Glad they’re buying American made though
What was the top speed in MPH?
53
Lots and lots and lots and lots!
There is usually no running in on new Mercurys.
They blow up
Or mercury 40hp and 30hp long leg 4tienpos used 2018 thanks
Restrictions suck, don't know how you think tolerate it.
How do you get permission?.
Boat ramps are open no motor boats allowed
It’s open now
Permission....?
Just bloody go! It's you and your boat or with your family that you live with anyway. Just, bloody, go! And stop listening to the madness. Who are you going to infect out there? The seagulls 😂🤦♂️
This is a sickness that has less mortality rate than the flu and everyone is throwing their Rights away because of it. Just go boating man...... 🤦♂️
now do the 600
You have a real engine now. Tourqe monster. I have a 300. They rip
oxe disel outbard
Y’all are killing me with the masks
NS
BETA!
Closed the video as soon as I saw the masks.
Had to wear it unfortunately when they made the video. They live under dictatorship
that's nothing, here in south Texas we got 24 ft shallow water boats with 450 mercury racing motors powering them.
We don’t
You also have bigger wankers in Texas than we do in Australia
THOMAS A // when was the last time you went 40 - 60 miles off shore in 6 to 12 ft swells blowing 20 to 30 knot winds in one of your punts // yep horses for courses //and yep we are just as crazy as you // cheers
V8 250? Seems like she has 2 extra cylinders to me
Yep. V8
yes
I wish my boat came with a Merc instead of the blue engine. Now all you boys need to do is replace that pickup with a nice F150.
buy f150 eltric or hybrd
What does boating have to do with following "social distancing". It is one of the most isolated activities I can think of, especially if your out there with your family that you live with anyway. Ridiculous authoritarian nonsense.
@@BillWalters-kx8sw fair comment if you're boats under 3mtrs James other wise there is no difference between land n sea.
@@dezray5547 there’s great difference between land and water, and other than massive ships, the size of the boat doesn’t matter. It’s just authoritarian bullshit shutting people down while the rich elites live Normal loves
I wanna get a 250 pro xs on a 22 lol
Mercury if you want to fast: Suzuki if you want to get back.
Not wrong mate. Black anchors
Where I live we say mercury will get you there faster but yamaha will bring you back.
@@smannee Either way is OK, but Suzukis have proven to be slightly more bulletproof and a lot less expensive.
@@ice-xv1hi I agree the Suzuki is a great outboard. I Iive in the sourhern caribbean where Yamaha dominantes the market. We dont have a dedicated Suzuki outboard dealer or parts support which contributes to their unpoularity.
@@smannee Agreed. The major advantage of Yamaha is their dealer network.
TOP SPEED ❓
