[QUOTE="Scott F, post: 484431, member: 23059"] A 60/40 jet motor has 40 hp at the jet. It compares to a 40 hp prop motor. I had a boat rated for a 20 hp motor that I wanted to put a jet on. I tried a Tohatsu 50/35 jet on it because the small 25/18 jets just have a hard time pushing most boats, There wasn’t an issue with being too much power for the hull, but it was too much weight for the boat especially with the starting battery back in the stern.
