looking to buy 1995 210 talari
I have been looking at a 210 1995 talari.
great condition but it has the 4.3 v6. Low hours and runs great. Seems slow to come out of the hole. I know it has a 5 blade prop not sure of pitch. does not have a hydrofoil. This is THE nicest boat I have seen and I have been looking a lot. Hate to pass on this one. Any suggestions Thanks in advance. 20 ft boat and 4.3 v6 is it just under powered? |
Re: looking to buy 1995 210 talari
Depending on what V6 you have?
You've still got 190<225 hp. Plenty for a 20' boat. In fact, when you take power to weight into it you're probably better off with the 4.3 V6 than the 5.0 V8. You'd need the 5.7 to see any real gains. With the Five blade it should jump out of the hole..... 2 possible problems with that, either you are way over pitched or the motor isn't putting out ;) Oh don't fit a hydrofoil :shakehead: You'll have the "Old Guard" down on you in a flash :rolling_laugh: Do a forum search on smart tabs. |

In 1995, the 4.3 with a 2bbl was rated at 160HP and 180 with the 4bbl. A 21 foot Talari is a lot of boat for a 6 banger.
I love the look of the 95 Talari 210, especially in the Z package. I would have one if I had a bigger garage! |

Thanks guys
It is the 4.3 merc with a 4 barrel carb. Top wot is fine top Speed is fine. Over pitched? How do I know? Runs like a top. It does not jump out of the hole. I know he changed the prop to a 5 blade just not sure of the pitch What was std factory and what should I look for to gain Takeoff? Thanks |
Re: looking to buy 1995 210 talari
Did you notice the rpm at wide open throttle? That will tell you a lot. A lower pitch prop will definitely help. There should be numbers stamped on the prop that will give the pitch. I would add the smart tabs, then decide if you need to pitch down. Smart tabs will make a big difference on your hole shot.

Despite what AndyB thinks (he's on the wrong side of the big pond and they drive on the wrong side of the road), you're asking a lot of that 4.3 to push a 21' boat with any authority. It will be decent on fuel though compared to the 5.7L
If you want to learn the basics about props & prop selection, there are a couple of STICKYS at the top of the Prop Forum that will help you out. And yes, those Smart Tabs should really help that boat out with its planing ability. |
Re: looking to buy 1995 210 talari
Sorry to act dumb. Haha. Smart tabs. Trim tabs interchangeable names? New to boating. Boat is only 20ft I believe but dry weight about 3000lbs
Hydrofoil help? |
