[QUOTE="sinbad, post: 417584, member: 21392"] Ok, so here's the situation. I'm seriously considering the purchase of a new Seaark 2472 boat. The manufacturer states this hull is rated for up to 300 HP. The boat will be used only on Maine's fresh water lakes for both fishing and mostly diving. I really don't want a 300 hp on this boat - I have no desire to set speed records. What's a reasonable amount of HP for this boat? I used the HP calculator on this site and yes it indicated 300 HP is the maximum HP for this hull. That's way to much for my peace of mind. Any suggestions? Thanks [/QUOTE]
