will the pt-35 be big enough to work on a 40 h.p. motor, it is rated for 35 h.p. but will the 5 h.p. be a different in this application. thank you for your comments

IT IS NOT THE HP THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE BUT THE WEIGHT OF THE MOTOR. BOTH THE PT-130 AND THE 35 ARE RATED TO 7800 lbs OF THRUST BUT I WOULD NOT TAKE A CHANCE ON IT WITHOUT, FIRST, CONTACING THE MFR. WITH THE MOTOR WEIGHT; EITHER VIA THE NET OR A PHONE NUMBER. I,MYSELF, WOULD BE VERY UNHAPPY IF I WAS ON ERIE AND SHE BLEW UP AND, WHILE I'M RUNNING OUT OF HARMS WAY, MY 40 HORSE BECOMES ANOTHER BOTTOM SNAG!! I WOULDN'T DO IT.
