Hello all,

 

I recently picked up a mercury minnow Jon boat and the information plate is worn away, I was hoping someone here might be able to tell me what the weight limit is on this boat. Here’s the serial number is it helps, I have reached out to Mercury via email but haven’t received anything back. Thank you all for any help offered. CNPJ7583M84 

 

A quick google says it’s an 11’ boat and one listed said 4’ but it looks narrower than that.  A 1248 Jon boat would top out at a 9.9 I think.  For an 1142 I’d say 6 hp is about as much as I’d put on it.  If you have a 9.9 already then you could put it on and see, just watch how much throttle you give it.
