Thanks a lot for taking the time to research and give me your thoughts. Seems like your boat and this one are very similar. When you say 20 years ago was it the same engine in that machine?

I’m probably overthinking this decision but I just don’t have anything to compare it to. We are going to go with the 115 I think, just wasn’t sure if the pro xs ct was necessary. It is going to be a cottage boat and if I have to get up on two skis then I’ll be ok with that. Just wanted to make sure the boat will be alright with the 5 of us in it.

That’s my dilemma especially considering I don’t have a real boat now to compare it to. We have a 14 ft aluminum with a 9.9.

The boat that you have on your picture looks like about the same size and has a Merc on it? Mind me asking your specs? and do you use it to ski at all?

I haven’t skiied since I was a teenager, just want to be sure that the motor works for worse case scenario. This is our first boat for the cottage so we are a bit clueless. I appreciate any advise you can give us.

My decision I think at this point is whether or not to pay for the Pro xs ct or just go with the standard 115? Thanks again for the input.

Does it help that it’s an aluminum fish/ski and not a fibreglass boat?
