Default Single 250 or Twin 150s?

Howdy,

I am looking at a nice 25' center console fishing boat that weighs 3700
pounds dry and without power. Will a Suzuki 250 be enough get up and go or
will a pair of 150s be necessary? I think 3700 is pretty light for a 25' CC
compared to a Grady or Mako. Thoughts? My piggy bank would like to say
single.


Thanks,

Lance


I have a good friend with a Judge 28'. He has a Honda 90 4-stroke on the
back. It trolls nicely. Top speed is around 27mph. It takes a while to get
on plane, but it will - eventually.

It's all in how fast you want to go. Harry has 150hp on a 21' CC that is,
according to him, pretty heavy. He's very pleased with it.
