Did anyone ever make a pump for the Johnson 28 Special and if they did how much are they? I have a 15 Alaskan and would like to take it out in places that I do not feel good about running a prop. Advice?

I wouldn't spend the money on a pump for a 28 SP. My buddy has a 13' Alaskan and runs a 60/40 pump on it, he used a 50hp for a while, but it was under powered with it. dropping to a 28 may get you on plane with one person, but two would be difficult.

Thanks for the advice. I don't want to make a big mistake.

You lose 20 to 30 % of your H.P. with a pump ...
