Depends on the boats capacity ratings plus your weight and gear.
I fish a small river with a Mercury 2.5hp. Gets me where I want to go
without paddling.
There are no standard electric OUTBOARD motors made for a boat that large. While submarines and sightseeing boats may use electric motors, they are not outboards, and are designed for the hull shape and size. The largest electric outboard I have seen is 3 hp- suitable for a 14 ft boat.
i have a 21ft sunbrid walk around boat with a 175 outboard motor i would like to know what size propeller should i use
The right size for an electric outboard motor for a 10 foot fishing boat seems to be 4 - 5 - 6 hp, 8 - 9.9 hp or 15 - 20hp. It simply depends on what kind of fishing boat it is.
it should probs have a motor beetween 70 and 115hp check the hp rating on your boat on the capacity plate
100 aph
not sure how wide your Jon boat is but I would go with a 3.5HP or 5HP outboard no bigger
I saw one today with a 115 and some on line with more than that.
It depends on the size craft it is pushing. A 5hp outboard should run fast enough to plane out say a 10 to 12ft. aluminum boat with one man aboard.
The propeller size on an outboard engine, is dependant on the application. The size of the boat, and more particularly the weight it will carry, determines the propeller size.
175/150
You will need the weight of your boat in lbs, the weight of the people & kit it is expevted to carry and then divide by 70. This will give you the thrust in lbs. For example a total weight of 2500lbs divided by 70 = 35.71, round this up to the nearest whole number is 36. Therefore a trolloing motor of 36lbs thrust is required. Bryan1324
Depends if it fiberglass or Aluminium. For Fiberglass you would be looking at around 50hp-60hp and and Aluminium would be between 30hp and 40hp.
