[QUOTE="oldboat, post: 457355, member: 23896"] Thank you MrGiggles and Welderthemagnificent… the Mark 55 I have is a 40 hp. @ about 120 lbs.... the Mark 75 is a 60 hp. @ about 178 lbs. ... and the Merc 800 is 80hp. @ about 225-233 lbs. ... I would like a motor from about the same time frame for the boat.... there is no rating on the boat itself.. the brochures just states that any outboard from 7 1/2 hp. to 50 hp. can be used … depending on speed desired... smaller motors will work well with light loads and larger motors will enable the boat to step out and really travel.. for all around use they recommend around a 22 1/2 hp. and it will reach speeds of 20 to 25 mph... I was thinking maybe the 60hp might be better ?? [/QUOTE]
