good looking! still see that tracker/nitro feels it necessary to block all of the guages with the steering wheel. never understood that. on my boat, i can see the speedo...that doesn't work...and the tach. the other 4 guages are blocked by the wheel.

175 or 185!! 185 with a 50hp or 90hp or 115hp!!! I love these types of decisions ..

dam bug repost sorry

I LOVE the whole idea of the 115 OPTI and would upgrade if I could. But that blue decal has GOT TO GO!!!! Didn't Merc do a market study on the color. What happened to the RED???

 

[Larry Harp]

Bruce, I can't really tell from the pictures but does that 175 have the painted top half? It looks in the pictures like it's the same mill finish as in the past.

And they could add the little hose between the motor and boat to give it a more professional look (the little hose organizer thing).



That white boat is a Nitro, not a Tracker. Is the blue still a saltwater motor (it doesn't SAY so)?



It has a painted top-cap for sure and transom, but agree with the look of the lower part of the boat.

repost &^*^^%

Sorry the pics aren't great, not much room to move around and the sun was blaring in the windows.



The top cap is painted the gunmetal grayish color, The the decals match and the bottom half is still just the aluminum finish.



The Opti didn't say, I'm hoping it's the red color and not the blue. The pic on Merc's site is an even better color scheme.

I also noticed that there wasn't a Tracker/Merc motor on any of the boats in the showroom. Wonder if they are doing away with those decals....



Mike - that little hose organizer thing only comes on 150 and bigger motors, I tried to get one for my boat when I bought it and that's what they told me.

NICE!!

 

[Bryan Fary]

my boat has a 150 on it and i didn't get a hose orgasmic thing????? i feel cheated! i want one! guess i will have to do what jimb did and make my own!

This ought to turn a few heads on the guys who own glass.

Maybe stomachs on the die hards...



I wish I could get one but the boss would have a fit...

 

[Robert Spradley]

Question. In the last two pics, of course the glass boat. Is this an all glass transom? or is there still wood in it?

 

[Bruce Yeaton]

Don't know Nominal, I'm assuming still wood, but I can ask next time I'm there.
