Pro XS Vs. SHO

[ckinchen]

I was speaking with the owner of LMC Marine is Houston today at lunch and the SHO came up. He had a 250 PRO XS on his boat and replaced it with a 250SHO. He believes the SHO to be the same speed as the PRO XS if not faster with the advantages of a 4 stroke. Get ready because there will be 30 or more people on this site that will tell you a PRO XS is faster and maybe it is but this person has access to Yam and Merc engines and obviously can get them at cost and decided to go with the SHO. That to me is very telling. He has only used his boat in saltwater and has a jackplate.
