Not sure but I believe the 81 is rated at the
prop I think this makes the actual power 3
to 6% less than the rating.That being said I
think you will notice the 35s extra power most
under a full load and not so much under lighter
loads.while I fully believe you should get the most horsepower you can afford I think the 25 is
the better bet.It is probably lighter and more
econimical.
