1970 Aquasport 222 project boat. Classic hull with great bones, but it is a complete rebuild. I had every intention of restoring it, but the project just isn’t in the cards for me. Clean title in hand. Perfect platform for someone who wants a full restoration starting from scratch.Contact   me 786-462-4151

Engines & engine woes / Re: Mercury 115 Pro XS vs Suzuki 140

The Max HP list for the 196 is 125hp. I would do a little query on the weight of the old vs new but you should be good.

Engines & engine woes / Mercury 115 Pro XS vs Suzuki 140
« Last post by dbiscayne on November 14, 2025, 09:49:54 AM »
Anybody have a real world comparison of these two outboards on similar boats, more recent versions of the two seems like anything over 10 years old is very different than the current models.

The Merc 115 Pro XS with Command Thrust lower unit, not the standard model.
Displacement is 2.06 L, puts out a tested 126 hp, and peak torque of 166 N-m at 3500 RPM, and the Mercury is about 45 lbs lighter.
Suzuki's 140 displacement is 2.04 L, tested 140 hp, and peak torque of 168 N-m at 4500 RPM.

Power seems so close, I like that the Merc hits peak torque lower in the range for a better hole shot, the way I run isn't about top speed but more 20 - 30 mph cruising, stop & go throughout the trip. This will be on an older 19-6, around 1800 lbs rigged.

Electrical / 275 vacuflush wiring diagram
« Last post by Kmac on November 12, 2025, 09:22:29 AM »
New 2005 275 owner.
Anyone have wiring diagram for this model or just the head system?  I don’t have power to the vacuum switch on the vacuum generator.  Everything works with direct 12 volts to switch but no power through the boat’s wiring.  DC panel switches have power and pass power through when switched on but no combination of switches will supply 12 volts to vacuum switch?
Anyone know of additional fuses or circuit breaker in this system somewhere
Thanks
Great boat but some electrical stuff driving me crazy
