Houseboat Outboard Engine Options - Speed, Power, High Thrust, Makes?

Houseboat with a high thrust 25 hp Mercury Big Foot outboard.

I have a houseboat with an outboard engine, and am curious about high thrust models, the power, the speed, of various makes or manufacturers?

I have a 25 hp Mercury Big Foot to power a 31' Houseboat. I'm thinking I may need a little more power if I find myself in a strong current and headwind at the same time.

I'm going to be running around in some shallow bay water down on the coast. So, I'm wondering is anybody knows anything about the new jet thrust outboards.

They say that they are quieter, more efficient, and am curious if anybody has any experience or information to share?

Thanks Mo, Texas
