Allison Grand Sport Features: Mercury 150 Four Stroke

  • A closer look at our Allison Grand Sport boat, with the Mercury 150 four stroke. We also test a 26" Trophy Plus prop that has been customized. The pitch is too low for a top speed run, but a great all around everyday prop for cruising. This boat goes 80 MPH with a 30" Promax prop but the Trophy is a great cruising propeller.

      If you read the article on the 150 4stroke on this hull, it is a great budget setup. 2800 rpm, 40 mph, 10 mpg. Sounds like a winner for cursing around all day on a few bucks.

    • @WavetoWaveBoats
      @WavetoWaveBoats  3 года назад +2

      No, the regular 150 is a little faster because of the gear ratio. The ProXS would need taller gears, and would be slightly faster then. Not 10 MPH though, lol. It wasn't available when we did this project.

      Fast boats are efficient, so it's interesting to note how efficient they are, especially with new engines. And 80+ MPH, definitely not under powered. The 300R is too heavy for this boat.

      @@WavetoWaveBoats huh...well, I might have stumbled into the wrong party. I took a look because I'm familiar with Allison brand and I like 19 to 24' speedboats. Where we float no one complains about the frequency of gassing up, and 80 mph is underpowered when everyone else is doing 110.
      I wish Allison would make a hull that could handle a 600lb clamp-on. There's a decent size list of those who do.
      Thanks for sharing the vids, anything speed on the water is a good watch.

      I would put a older 2.5 280 or even a 2.6 Yamaha stage 3. And I know a guy that had a 22 or 23 grand sport that flew through lake Os chop over 100 with a 300x. My father owned a 20xd bullet with a 300x with a blue printed pad went over 108 and it did 90 with a 225x then he got a heavier stroker that still goes 107 with same old 300x
