Overview

The Optimax Pro XS is Mercury's legendary 2-stroke direct-injection hot rod — explosive holeshot, screaming top end, and the kind of throttle response four-strokes still chase. This 2016 175 Pro XS shows just 200 hours, mostly idle time.

Always flushed with fresh water after each use. No rigging or steering included — priced accordingly for a straightforward repower. Photographed on the transom as offered, including a cowling-off view of the powerhead.

Compatibility notes

• Confirm your boat’s capacity plate: never exceed the maximum rated horsepower.
• Match shaft length to your transom height so the anti-ventilation plate runs at the correct depth.
• Confirm your transom and hull can support the engine’s weight.
• Controls, cables, gauges, steering components, and propellers are not included unless the listing states otherwise — we verify rigging compatibility with your boat before you buy.
