I would get the biggest outboard motor I could find. The Atlantic can be rough.

Re: Hot Tub back to the UK
If your employer is shipping it, you've looked into the power problem... then is there another area you're not sure of ?

It's not the power thats the problem...it's the water. You see we have larger gallons than the US and so not all the water will fit in leaving a load to slosh over the sides.

Re: Hot Tub back to the UK
The US expats in the UK has some good information on the electrical differences and on any plumbing differences (huge debate over UK toilets). The size and threading of the pipes might be an issue (I'm not sure).
