Anyone ever see or put a trolling motor on a 265 Express??? I've looked at soooooo many 265 Express's my eyes are about to cross but I have yet to see one with a trolling motor. Is there a good reason why I've never seen one with a kicker motor? Clue me in, why no kicker motors on these...

Given your parameters, the Etec is the ONLY outboard I would consider. Best 2 stroke on the market for sure.

Repowered a 18ft Lund fishing boat from a 2stroke 140hp Johnson to a 150hp E-tec a few years back. Fuel consumption was better by about 20% power was better but not nearly what the sales pitch said it would be. I really liked how quiet it was. It seemed to run well on just about anything I...

I've spent the last few weeks running a new to me 265 and pretty much all the responses so far are spot on. They need a certain amount of motor trim to get that bow up out of the water or it bow steers quite a bit. The 265 Express, IMO, is not for the weak at heart operator. You need to...

This may sound like a silly question but can or do you ever trim your motors individually? Meaning, one more than the other.

What should a 2000 265 equipped with ox 250's run up to for MPH and what is max RPM???? I think I read and old article that was done in 2000 or so and it said top speed was 44MPH with twin OX 250's but I don't recall what max RPM was. Not that 44MPH is slow but I would have thought it would...

This 265 seems to be and excellent mid size fishing machine so why did Grady White stop building this model????

One of the things that has me scratching my head, atleast until I run either boat myself, is that neither owner will say their 265 has some handling quirks while running. I've read quite a bit about these 265's and they all seem to have some amount of quirkieness to them when they are up on...

This is all great information. Much appreciated and please keep it flowing. Also, I've been reading alot about these 2 strokes and it sounds like they are bullet proof with proper maintenance. If this is the case why would I want to spend the money I save for new power plants? Wouldn't that...

Looking at a 2000 265 Express and a 2004 265 Express. The 2000 has 250hp OX66's w/600hrs the 2004 has F225's w/400hrs. The 2000 W/3 axle trailer is $42K the 2004 $73K no trailer. Other than the trailer issue, both boats are equipped about the same and both are in very good condition. The...
