We have a 06' 175 with the 3.0
I ride alot. Wakeskate and Wakeboard.
It pulls fine, but you will want to put a different prop on it. (4blade 19pitch)
I also have run a some ballast and the wake is pretty good for a small boat.
We have 450 hours and the motor has been awesome. (most of the...

I'm not sure on the 210. Weight up front helps a ton. 60/40 ratio works good for most I/O's. Reprop to a 4 blade it will help holeshot and speed hold a bunch.

What kind of pump do I need to get the oil out. I want a cheap one (under $25) Since i wont do this much. My only problem is that the dip...
I have been in some really ruff water in our 175. Nothing like a ocean....but if you know how to drive in ruff water you should be ok.
