Default Single 250 or Twin 150s?

Oh, that's just brilliant.

Redunancy is important in boats like this and to save a few bucks by
not using twins is silly. The 250 will push that thing around fine,
but twins are important if he's planning on heading out a few miles
offshore.

Towing insurance companies are important, I agree, but not having the
power to get out of trouble on your own is also importnat.
