Outboard Drag Power-to-Weight Calculator


Welcome to our free online Power-to-Weight Ratio Calculator!


This tool helps you quickly calculate the power-to-weight ratio of your outboard drag boat and engine combination, which is a key factor in determining overall performance.


The power-to-weight ratio is important for assessing the potential acceleration of your boat.


How to Use the Calculator:


  • Enter Engine Horsepower (HP): Input the horsepower of your outboard engine. For example, if your engine is rated at 260 HP, enter "260."


  • Enter Boat & Engine Weight (lbs): Input the combined weight of your boat, engine, and any other relevant equipment. For instance, if your total weight is 1500 lbs, enter "1500."


  • Calculate: Once you've entered the horsepower and weight, click the "Calculate Power-to-Weight Ratio" button.


  • Result: The calculator will display the power-to-weight ratio, expressed as HP per pound (HP/lb). The higher the ratio, the more powerful your engine is compared to the weight of your boat.


This easy-to-use tool will help you understand how well your boat will perform based on its power-to-weight ratio, giving you insights into its improving ET times.
