Paging Escape 209 Owners with Yamaha 2S 200

[sburrill]

Howdy...new to forum for the most part. Came over from Hull Truth.

I just put a new HPDI 200 on my 93 209 but it came with too big of a wheel. (15.25 x 21). Grady reccomends a 13 3/4” x 17. Yamaha performance bulliten sais 13 3/4” X 19” S/S.

What are you running? What do you get for RPM on WOT?

Welcome, more new members, like it.

Came over from THT ? We won't hold it against you (just kidding!)

I had the 204C, a predecessor, but I did want to comment on the motor selection.

Finally, I see the perfect motor match, of all 2 or 4 strokes, for that Grady model !

Did you get the 5 yr warranty included? Hope so.

I see the yamaha deal being advertised.

 

[sburrill]

I got the standard warrantee...I bought it two weeks too early :cry:

 

[BobP]

Rats!

I presume the warranty card was filed out by dealer and sent in ? If not or don't know, call dealer right away, it doesn't matter bill of sale date, it only matters date on card.

 

[sburrill]

Nah...it was filled and sent to early for this. WHAT A PISSAH!!!!!! That's a $2250 two week difference. They announced the special the day it was active so there was no way to know.

 

[BobP]

Rats!

Anyway, great motor, for a great boat !

Good luck!

Escape 209 prop

I have the exact set-up you have. 1993 Escape with new 200HPDI.
I repropped tp Performance Bulletin specs.
Andy at SIM set me up with a 13 3/4 x 19 SS Yamaha prop.
This prop put me at 5300rpm and 47mph at WOT.
Seems spot on to me. I'm very pleased. Big boost in performance.
I believe prop series was 'Reliance' but Andy should know. I'll look up my emails soon.
I don't think you'll be disappointed.
