The Force isa 1990, so it should be rated at the prop shaft. However, the
rating is +/- 10% and I think its pushing the 10% on the under side.

Older motors were rated at the powerhead. New motors are rated at the
prop.

I'm thinking about getting rid of my old Force 50 on the little boat and
replacing it with a more modern outboard. I know that not all 50HP
rated
motors will develope exactly 50HP. So, whose motor is most under rated?
I
have enough weight in the boat that every pony under the cowling makes a
difference.
