I noticed this the very first time I cranked my SHO because i previously owned a 2 stroke that had a strong stream. My 250 SHO has a weak stream at idle and it is weak when running. I have 85 hours on the motor now and the stream is exactly the same as the very first time I fired it up. As far as I can tell, it's the nature of this motor to have a weak stream. I believe a good amount of water is being discharged through the lower unit and the stream is pretty much an indication that the motor does indeed have water flow. I dont think the stream on this motor is an indicator of the amount of water pressure. No issues with mine so far.
