[QUOTE="Redfox, post: 5634084, member: 23184"] The power reduction is real. 60-90 head puts out 40-65 at the foot. If it’s bought factory with a jet it should be stamped with the usable power. I would look really hard at blazer if I was buying a new hull. You need something that’s tough with good welds but isn’t crazy heavy. Those heavy rigs are hard to drag loose when you stick one. The tunnels can help with picking up rocks but it can make it loose bite easier. The jets are terrible on the lake but if you only fish in gentle weather it’ll do the job. I definitely wouldn’t get a tunnel if I ran the lake very often. Get a good suicide knob, remember when you get nervous hit the gas, carry a tool kit(enough to pull the foot apart), there’s really no reverse, oh and the guzzle gas!! Welcome to the wonderful world of jets. [/QUOTE]
