Hello, My name is Charles and I am brand new to the world of Allison boats.
I live in Texas and enjoy fishing, hunting and spending time in the great outdoors. My interest in owning an Allison happened about 3 years ago after I sat behind the wheel of my brothers XB02. I’ve driven many boats in my past with my Champion being the most comfortable and my Bullet being the most sporty, but neither compare to what it felt like to peddle the throttle behind the wheel of the Allison. I have recently purchased a 1999 XB2003 that’s powered by a stock 1999 Pro Max 225. The boat is set up to fish with a 24v troller, Lowrance Graphs and about 50 lbs of additional tackle. It’s not often I get the chance to burn some fuel and get seat time, but I take advantage of every opportunity that may arise. I’ve recently removed the troller and was hoping to get some input regarding set up options, below is where I’m at today.
1999 XB2003
1999 ProMax 225 w/20” Bass Mid
Sporty w/ 1.87:1 gears
15” Set Back
PTP is even with lip but I’m not sure how to measure the lip.
26 Pitch Trophy Plus : 6300rpm @ 84.2
30 Pitch Hoss Cut : 6500rpm @ 94.3 “Lazy out of the hole”
Currently waiting on my Hydromotive 27 Intimidator Quad IV O/T to arrive.
