Mercury Pro XS 115 4-Stroke Ideal for Mid-Size Fishing RigsCompetitive bass anglers have long considered Mercury Marine's Pro XS series among the best performing tournament-fishing outboards on the water. Mercury has produced another outboard that gives freshwater anglers an edge on the competition: the new 115 Pro XS Four Stroke outboard.
The 115 Pro XS is perfect for 17'-18' aluminum and fiberglass bass boats, as well as aluminum multispecies hulls in the same size range.
Based on the popular Mercury 115 FourStroke, the new Mercury 115 Pro XS delivers significantly better performance than any other high-output 115hp outboard on the market today. In fact, the new 115 Pro XS is 16 pounds lighter than the 115 OptiMax it replaces, and 18 pounds lighter than the nearest competing 115hp engine. Its 2.1L displacement is higher than that of any competing 115hp engine. This unbeatable combination delivers higher torque, better performance and greater durability - everything a bass angler needs to make the leaderboard in tournament season.

Mercury expands tournament-level propeller line with Fury 4.Mercury Propellers is giving "heavy boat" anglers just what they've been asking for by introducing the Fury 4 propeller.
Bass tournament anglers who load their boats with the latest fishing technology require a propeller that will help them reach top speeds ahead of the competition. The Fury 4 has four high-progressive-rake blades made of Mercury's X7 Alloy for additional lift and superior top speed on heavy, tournament-loaded bass boats.
The Fury 4 features 8 PVS holes that get boats on plane faster and deliver excellent shallowwater launches. Whatís more, the Fury 4 delivers stable handling and superior holding in rough water, so anglers can get to the weigh-in on time no matter what conditions might be.
Mercuryís Fury 4 complements the original Fury propeller, so now thereís a Fury propeller for all anglers. While the three-blade original Fury set the speed standard for bass boats with light and medium loads, the Fury 4 gives competitive bass anglers with tournament-loaded boats an additional 1 mph over the Fury ñ making it the fastest propeller in the world for heavy tournament-loaded boats.
The new Fury 4 from Mercury Propellers is available in 24-, 25- and 26-inch pitches in righthand rotation. It is recommended for tournament-loaded bass boats with outboard power in excess of 200hp.
