another jet motor question.....
« on: August 21, 2015, 10:34:26 AM »
Y'all that are running jets on your Towee's, how many hp are you running.  Would a two stroke Mercury 20hp factory Jet have enough gusto?  I believe its a 25hp head with a jet foot.  It's a factory jet market 20hp on the cowling.

Don't have a Towee, it'll move it.

Owww. Don't you have some poor defenseless fish somewhere to beat up on?

Yoda's 25/18 is enough motor for a Towee unless you're racing a bass boat, trying to run up rivers during a 100 yr flood, or have a manatee carcass draped across the bow.
