Hello all,
Looking at picking up a 1448 Lowe boat. It comes with a newer Mercury 4 stoke EFI motor with a "25 hp" and "Jet drive" decal on the back of the cowling. My question is, since this seems to be a jet from the factory jet motor is it actually 25 at the jet or is this still a power head rating. My understanding is a jet pump will cause approx. 30 percent power loss. I would hate to end up with a 1448 boat with two adults in it and only really have 15 or so HP of jet power.
Thanks for your time,
Brad
