Mercury 1999 2.5L Promax 225, low hours, 20" mid, 1.87 Sportmaster

**tripower** · 10-13-2017, 08:35 AM

I bought this Promax 225 as part of a boat/motor package last summer with less than 100 hours on it, and only put about 10 hours on it. The boat and motor were both garage kept for their entire life and very well cared for, so it's in excellent condition. All stock, no mods. It's a 20" motor with 3-ram clamp and 1.87 Sportmaster lower, standard prop shaft. I also have a 3L 300 that I'm running on the boat now, so the 225 has been sitting. Time for a new home. Can run it on the stand before purchase. Prop not included. Price $7000 firm. PM or email for more info. Motor is in NJ for pickup.

Just did a compression test also. 128, 128,130, 128, 131, 128

How fast did it push that shadow?

That is one super clean Promax. Fair price too.
