The answer is relative. I have a 4 1/2 HP motor on my 12 foot aluminum boat. It gets me where I need to go.
The speed of a 12-foot aluminum boat with an electric motor typically ranges from 5 to 10 miles per hour, depending on several factors such as the motor's wattage, the boat's load, and water conditions. Higher-powered electric motors can achieve speeds closer to the upper end of this range. Additionally, the boat's design and weight also play significant roles in determining its maximum speed.
It depends a lot on the size of the boat. If it say, a 12 foot boat, probably about 7 or 8 knots (about 10 mph). On a bigger boat slower. As was said these small engines are used mainly for dinghies and for fishing. Answer: I have a 8 foot fiberglass dinghy with a 4 Hp outboard. My GPS says 11km/h under full throttle on a calm lake.

I would say if you know what model or make your Jon boat is you can find it. The motor capacity is determined by multiple factors. Height of sides, the mounting area of where you would put the motor. If it has a plate your already on the internet a lil searching with that model number and should be a non issue.

No, a 6 amp switch should not be used to control a 12 amp motor as it may cause the switch to overheat and fail due to exceeding its amperage rating. It is important to match the switch's amperage rating with the motor's amperage to ensure safe and proper operation.
Any age, as long as you have a license. Once you are 12 you can drive a boat with of any horse power.
If you take your boaters license and your between 12-15 then you can drive a motor under30
