And it’s not enough power for the Kenai or the rivers I mentioned?

A Tohatsu 40 HP jet has a 60 HP powerhead. People used to run 40 hp on the Kenai in much heavier boats.


Like mentioned above, no 60hp powerhead on the Kenai. My little 50hp Tohatsu TLDI does just fine pushes a couple guys and gear up 20mile. I've carried my caribou camp, my son, and a quartered caribou with no issues in my 1752 Aweld.

Are you running a prop or jet?

Just a jet on mine. A prop would be nice though for lakes and bigger rivers.
