Default Should I buy this Boston Whaler

I have a nice Brockway 16. High sides, nice swim ladder lots of room.
I think if I could get that on plane, I would be happy with it, right
now I have hull speed all day long, but no faster. Do you think a 25
would get it going (I have one but I would need to do some work on it)
or do I need to go 40-50 horse.

That's a big heavy boat for a 25, don't think it would plane with even
one person a board, certainly not with two or three. A 50 would be
more reasonable in my experience.
