Looking to get some feedback on a Mercury 25 HP Jet motor. Thinking about putting one a Tracker Grizzly 1448.
Thanks
 
I like them, but you have to know the limitations. I run a 25 Mariner on a decked 1436 jon and it is a highly capable boat. Planes out easily with 2 guys and gear, and it light enough to man-handle if you get in trouble. When properly trimmed it will run in 4" of water. Would probably run even better with your wider boat as mine digs into the corners. Don't think that it will push 4 guys fully loaded up some gnarly rapids, but it will let you get into some areas that props dont dare to. I do run it at full throttle most of the time an you need to keep in mind that that is no top end left if need more power to get over something.

Here's a link to the jet boats. A guy on here's got the same setup.
