Mercury Fourstroke 90 Command Thrust

Anyone running a new Merc Fourstroke 90 CT on their BaySport 175? I repowered from a 2004 Merc 90 Saltwater - so far, so good. Excellent performance, once ya get the thing started. Running a 14 1/2 x 19 3-blade SS prop and getting 33+ kts at 5200 RPM.

With EFI, starting should not be an issue! Should start first time every time (for the most part)

Turns out, my starting problem is battery related. Had a back and forth with the dealer that performed the re-power, they didn't necessarily execute the most efficient cable run from the engine to the battery located in the center console. As a result, the battery has to be fully charged to 12 volts to start. Went out yesterday with a battery pack just in case. Cranked right up! Wonderful way to escape black Friday.
