Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Thunder Jet 186 Rush w/ 90 HP Mercury 4 Stroke! 2021 vs ThunderJet Alexis Offshore 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Thunder Jet 186 Rush w/ 90 HP Mercury 4 Stroke! 2021 vs ThunderJet Alexis Offshore 2012 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The ThunderJet Alexis Offshore 2012 tops out at 300 hp. Engine specs for the Thunder Jet 186 Rush w/ 90 HP Mercury 4 Stroke! 2021 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The ThunderJet Alexis Offshore 2012 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Thunder Jet 186 Rush w/ 90 HP Mercury 4 Stroke! 2021 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the ThunderJet Alexis Offshore 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the ThunderJet Alexis Offshore 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Thunder Jet 186 Rush w/ 90 HP Mercury 4 Stroke! 2021 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
