As a glassy eyed immortal, I have somewhat narrowed the field of boat offerings that would best suit my wants down to a fish/ ski type configuration.
I saw some Lowe offerings at Cabellas and they appeal to me.
Are their other brands I should consider that are a fish/ski setup?
There is some question concerning the Merc o/b engine offerings on this boat.
The ones displayed at Cabellas have the 115 hp 4 stroke I believe Optimax
The boat is capable of and can optionally come with up to a 150hp Merc.
I wouldnt mind paying for a higher horse engine if it would be better pulling a skier up and getting the fastest engine they have.
One salesman thought getting the two stroke Merc would be best for the watersports.
Im not sure if bigger is better?
I see Merc offers the Verado that is supercharged but in 150hp weighs the most
I see theres a 135 hp 2 and 4 stroke.
How does the supercharged 4 stroke compare to the 2 stroke in a same size??
Im new at this obviously.
