Jet boat question
#2
I'm not familiar with that line up. All I have ever ran regularly is a phantom ( sportjohn, with an Inboard) and one thing I've learned is more motor than you think you need isn't a bad thing. You can always throttle down for less but pretty hard to get more than max output. We've had a 210 and a 200 and in those boats it does well. For fishing out of the boat I would steer you towards an out board as it gives more room in the boat. Down side is the foot sticks down lower than with an Inboard. Also the outboards are said to have a little more HP loss when switched to a pump vs prop. Good luck on the shopping. A lot of it will come down to personal preference. Also even though you expect you n the pup plan for a couple more so when the times come you can take people out.
