It will need to be rigged with an outboard and controller for the outboard.
And prolly some steering work to adapt steering to the outboard as well as a
battery and whatever electrics are needed to wire the outboard to the boat.

In other words. It needs to have an outboard properly rigged is all.

Looking at that boat I think 25hp would be very dissapointing and struggle
to get that on plane with 2 people aboard. I'd *highly* reccomend one of
those little 4 cylinder Merc 2-strokes (45-50hp) that are all over the place
at a good price. Anything from 1960-1990 works about the same in this regard
so long as a good shop gives it the proper PM work.

Unreccomended are those ugly little Jonnyrudes of the same vintage.

My mother has decided my dad needs a boat and of all things she placed a
bit
on ebay for one.

She knows nothing about boats, and although my dad is a boat builder by
trade its going to be a surprize.

I dont know anything about boats my self, what would be needed to get this
going.

I live on the other side of the country to them so i cant go and view it.
