I have a 21SE with a motor guide 24volt. I think my setup is just fine. I’m in Southern California and use the trolling motor fishing boiling rocks and kelp.

60+ miles to San Clemente island, Southern California in my 21SE.

My 2002 is 95 gallons.

I have Edison’s on two of my boats!

That happed to me also recently too after a water pump replacement. I found that I put too much grease on the shift shaft and that must have forced the grease between the male and female shafts? What I did was I used q tip to clean the grease out of the lower unit shaft, bolted it up, and it...

I have a 21SE with a Motor Guide Great White, 24 volt with a 60” shaft. I wish that I had the 72” shaft but the 60” works well fishing kelp lines and boiler rocks in Southern California coastal waters. I see no need for the 87” model! Go with the 72” motor!

I have the exact same boat, year and engine. I have 12x12 Lenco tabs that made a huge difference in performance in all conditions. I trim my engine up till it begins to cavitate and then drop down a couple of bars. I find the 150hp engine more than adequate for my 21SE. I have an Apollo 14...

Here is a photo of my Motor Guide Great White 24 volt, 60”. Works ok but I wish I had a 72” shaft.

I have a 60" Motor Guide 24 Volt Great White model. I think it has 84# thrust. I have two group 27 batteries under the console seat. When I ordered the boat, I had the Parker factory run a 1" PVC conduit from the console to the anchor locker. Wires are sealed in the locker to keep all anchor...

I have a 21se and was disappointed with the ride until I installed 12X12 Lenco Tabs. All the difference in the world. Just drop the bow and go a little slower and she will not slap!

I also have a 21se with a 150 2 stroke. Plenty of power for me and has a top speed of 41mph.

I have a 21se, 150 two stroke, that came with a Yamaha black S/S 15X17 prop. Did not like the prop at all! Sold it and bought a Propco , 14 1/4X15 # SSLYR15SP three blade prop. Performance is much better with a top speed of 41 with two big guys and half tank of fuel.Turns about 5200 RPM at wide...

I have a Formula 233 with a F250 and I run a Mercury Mirage Plus 17" pitch for heavy loads and see 46MPH at 6000rpm. I also have a Quicksilver 19" pitch for lighter loads and can get 48MPH at 5800rpm.
