Ya I agree it does need a 150, but I got the boat from a guy that won it in a raffle for 1/2 the price of what it would cost new, and it has never touched the water till this morning

[Sabrecat88]

I think I found the issue. The motor has a 22pitch prop on it. Im in Az at no elevation and no humidity. Guys out here are running 22p props on 200hp motors. How am I suppose to break the motor in when the front it sky high at WOT 3500 rpm?

Sorry its a 2013 Bass Cat Sabre ftd with a mercury pro xs 115, and currently it has a lazer II 22 pitch prop on it, and it will not plane with 2 people. So if I take it to my local Murcury dealer we can get this resolved, no cost to me? Because Im very disappointed right now.

Thank you!

Ok if I just want to transfer the hull warranty its gonna be $100? I tournament fish but nothing at that high of a level.

[Sabrecat88]

No but I was told by Ivan that they would not resolve my problem. Im not asking a hand outs even though after spending $20k that would be the right thing. Im asking for help finding a Prop to trade. Its Very upsetting to spend $20k and it doesnt work. Would you be happy?

Are Props under Mercury warranty?

[Sabrecat88]

Maybe this will give you a little prospective on why Im so upset. I just came back from a tour in Iraq and my wife had this boat sitting in the drive way when I came home, and she is upset more than me because I cant even use the boat because it wont get on plane. She keeps telling me to let her call BCB but I promise you dont wanna talk to her. lol.

2013 BCB sabre FTD. I just bought the 6 footer and it seems too long as it goes onto the flat part after the keel… Anyone have this experience?

[Sabrecat88]

Please post pictures of how you routed the trans. Cable and how its mounted. Thanks guys

[Sabrecat88]

How does that look with the wire on the tm? Its a brand new boat so Im nervous to alter anything, because right now it looks to clean and uncluttered

[Sabrecat88]

I have the Motor Guide Freshwater 75# thrust. Looks good!

[Sabrecat88]

Ok so the motor is to high? Or the RPMs are to high?

[Sabrecat88]

Ok what height should I be looking for? What do you think this boat should run? I think 41-43mph

[Sabrecat88]

I did not see any beede water pressure gauges in the parts section?
