I had one like that on a 50hp mercury outboard. It ran great. It work good on my 14 foot tunnel hull duck boat. I could run in like 2 to 4 inches of water and take off in like 8 or 9 inches

They are fast enough to have a good time (scare the girls), but not too fast to really get hurt (unless you go crazy). As far as props, I have spent the last ten years fishing with the old man in a 21' skeeter bass boat w/ a 200 V-Max and will say this:
I am confident that most jets will beat it out of the hole, but as soon as that old fishing boat gets on plane, I have never seen a jet be able to keep up with it. (and a lot have tried)

true that!!!!!!!!

most cant beat a old bass boat

Its what i was born into....

Also, props scare me.....I've seen a few fatal prop accidents as a kid and I can remember them as if it happened yesterday.

jets are safe for the kid

I'm a outboard guy but I'm going back to a jet, so my kid and I can wakeboard(it's just safer and the wife can drive it

)

For me? Simple:

1) Rooster Tails

2) Harder launch; quicker hole shot; quicker planing than a prop

3) Safer around people in the water (no external moving parts to become a liability)

My first boat that a owned was a jet(ran 80ish) fast but not as fast as my outboard!

And I dont think #2 is right at all!!!!!
