What hp to make a 1436 plane?

[DrNip]

I would think it would depend on which 1436 you decide to go with. Tracker is only .05 and 15.5" rated at 15 HP transom whereas Weld-Craft is .08 and 19" transom rated at 25 HP. I would definitely try to go with the max HP the boat is rated for and you should have no problem planing. Personally I would go with at least a 15 HP on no matter which make of 1436 you decide to go with.

most of the 15hp motors weigh the same as their 10hp brothers.
