Ive finally given up on old hokey motors and I'm in the process of shopping for new Merc outboard. I'm contemplating a 110 jet drive outboard. I cant find any performance data on light pad bottom boats like my 17 foot '81 Checkmate Enticer. Merc uses the 150 powerhead on the 110 and the 110 hp rating is out the tube. Ive never used a jet but I should. Ive wiped out 3 props in the last year. Nothing but rocks and murky water where I'm at but I'd still like to run 50 ish MPH. Anyone running a jet pump?
