Ordered me a Basscat today from your new dealer in AZ Open Throttle Marine – GOOD!!People & I think I got a good deal.Got a decked out Sabre FTD mainly because it fits in my garage (no more storage hassles ) and it is the finest 18 tournament rig out there. Ill be teaching my boy to tournament fish this season , so wish me luck. Ill post pics when I get her.ThanksJim

You omitted it. Whats hanging off that transom? Hopefully not a hamster in a cage. 2008 Pantera Classic2014 Mercury Pro XS 200

not quite a hamster in a cage – I went with the 175 ProXS, she should get up and scoot pretty good.Also got the HB SI graph in the dash and some flashy colors on the boat – I should stand out in a crowd.

Hey Jim, I had talked to Mike there and they were really looking forward to getting you in a rig. From talking to them they are some “GOOD” guys over there. Congrads on your purchase, you did not go wrong. I fish out of the back of a 06 Sabre here in the valley, probably the only Sabre out here, and every once in a while, while Jason is retieing I get the chance to take the helm. Sometimes I even cross his line to get him snagged in a tree so he has to. I cant believe the fishability out of the Sabre.Tedaka locally”Fish-Head”DESERTDWELLER.COM “GET YOUR BASS IN THE BOAT”

In reality, if it follows the other XS motors true to form, it will be right on the borderline of 10% over stickered horsepower. 175 + 17.5 will be pretty interesting on that hull. By all means post the numbers. Ive always been a fan of the 2.5s, theyve been durable and very powerful.2008 Pantera Classic2014 Mercury Pro XS 200

We hope you enjoy your new Sabre FTD! Thank you for visiting Open Throttle and making the decision. OT57 that is what they are supposed to be about 192 hp. The 200 is already at 10% over. BCB
