My buddy just bought a brand new ranger aluminum boat with a 115 pro xs and it blew up or dropped a cylinder this weekend. Has less than 4 hours on it. I think they have some bugs to work out on that motor.
Yeah c’mon. Daniel White

If it didn't window the block, and destroy the crank, you need a new mechanic.

I've not heard any chatter about problems with the new 4 stroke XS, I think two of my immediate buddies are running them too. I believe Yamaha worked out all the bugs with the SHO, and now Mercury has all that to work from (plus I think this motor has been in testing for a loooong time now). I wouldn't hesitate a minute to have one, I'd really like it myself.
We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.

I have about 5 hours on my pro xs 115, the first 2 was following the break in procedure. No problems yet. I have a 5 year warranty, I will put it through it's paces in 5 years.

I wouldn't mind that but $17,200 for the mercury sounds a whole lot better than $22,000-$25,000 for the Yamaha which is what I was quoted today when I called a few dealers. That's just mind-boggling.....$20k for a motor. I get that boat motors are a lot different than car/truck motors, but dang.....

When I called the one dealer and they told me 25K I told them I appreciated their time and hung up. 25K ain't a whole lot less than what the boat was bought for back in 2015.

My neighbor just bought a brand new 17' Nitro with a 115 ProXS for like $28k last month....

Yeah, but a brand new nitro with a 250 is almost $50,000. Big difference in a 115 and 250. Just checked, a brand new 115 pro xs is only $9,000.
