Does anyone have any insight as to when the 275 will be updated? Is there a 285 in the works?
Secondly, does anyone know when the 1.9 engines will be placed into the 275?

Would like to see a 225s.I think next year for the 1.9’ SVHO’s across the brand.
Go and check out all the dope on the 2024 model year, there’s plenty of info in there about the 1.9’s and their four bladed impellers.
"You'll shoot your eye out kid!"Would like to see a 225s.
The impeller could bring less noise and vibration…What's wrong with the 1.8 SVHO's in the 275 now?
My 275 gets on plane in a hurry.... even with a full load of fuel, gear and passengers. It can run at 50MPH. The acceleration on plane is pretty good.
But it is a big, heavy boat. It eats gas like candy but that shouldn't be a surprise and I didn't buy for great fuel economy.
Personally, I can see no huge gain in performance or fuel economy in the 275 going from the 1.8L to the new 1.9L setup..... and the 1.8L has been fairly bullet-proof. The 275 is a great floorplan and a fun boat as it is so I'm not sure the 1.9L will bring much new to the table..... but maybe an impeller change can help but that can be done with the 1.8L.
Now if you start talking about dropping something like twin V6's in it and 600 total HP..... and maybe going to 29' length... that might be a different story.

I don’t feel any vibration to speak of in my 275. Maybe it would help with the noise…. but when you’re turning 6500 - 7500 RPM’s more often than not, it would be interesting to see how much quieter it would actually make the vessel.
Sorry, I don't understand your comment."You'll shoot your eye out kid!"
Well, I can tell you that when I was testing impellers when I put the Skat Traks in it halved the perceived noise, and, a lot of vibration that I hadn’t noticed before was gone. It was a bit of a night and day difference.
I had those Skats reworked just recently and I’ll be testing them as soon as I can which could be a while since winter is closing in.
We do get invited to preview and review new models ahead of their release, but that is typically in August at the dealer meeting.Does anyone have any insight as to when the 275 will be updated? Is there a 285 in the works?

The 1.9L comes with a 155mm pump per the brochure. Then again it also lists a 3-blade impeller not 4.......kinda like the color rendering we won't know until someone takes delivery and gets their hands on it and can confirm.So a 160mm pump with the 1.8 shvo.
Does the new 1.9 come with a bigger pump?
Horsepower, torque curve, 1.8 shvo vs. the new 1.9....
That sounds complex and complexity often brings cost and reliability issues along for the ride.Variable "Geometry" impeller would be nice.
