Don't get overcome by all the tech specs on large engines. If you don't like the noise, just get an electric trolling motor. Jon boats are not built for speed, but for stability and the ability to be beached and to go through just a few inches of water in swamps, not for big lakes with waves. Just get a 5 hp 2-stroke that uses a 50:1 mix and you will not see any pollution. Regards, Dan You only need a 5hp motor. Don’t get overcome by all the tech specs on large engines.
