Improved Durability and Response - Only OptiMax Pro XS features Carbon Fiber Reeds to control airflow into the engine crankcase. Carbon fiber reeds produce improved performance and efficiency because they are more durable and responsive than stainless steel or other fiber materials.
Tougher Gearcase - The durable Torque Master Gearcase 250 Pro XS features a heavy-duty propshaft and Mercury-patented dual water pickups on the front end of the torpedo for a constant flow of cooling water. The asymmetrical skeg delivers superior handling by countering the torque created by prop rotation.
Excellent Efficiency - Exclusive Dome-Shaped Pistons efficiently direct the fuel/air charge to the spark plug, producing excellent running quality, fuel economy and low emissions.
