Video: Premier PTX 225 Legend w/ 200 Suzuki Handling Test

#1 Post by jserr68594 » Sat Jul 01, 2017 1:41 pm

I just put a new prop on my boat and my buddy wanted me to do some maneuvers with it and grab a video. I thought I would share it with you guys. The boat is a 2006 Premier PTX Legend 22.75 foot. It has a 200 HP Suzuki 4 stroke turning a stainless 18.5P prop. The boat runs 45 MPH GPS at 5950 RPM with the new prop. Overall, I am very happy with the performance. It does steer a little stiff to the left. I am thinking it may be low on hydraulic fluid possibly.

I wouldn't touch a thing! 45mph from that combo is a great speed, I've been on a few PTX Premiers with more power on the back and they struggle to hit 45mph but damn they turn well! Best handling/turning pontoons I've ever rode on. The older V6 Suzuki 200 is a strong 200 class engine.
