I have 27 foot sailboat, 8.5 foot beam, 3800 lbs displacement. Is a racing boat. Currently powered by 1982 Johnson Seahorse 4.5 long shaft approx 55 lbs
Am considering upgrading to more power but weight is a critical consideration. Cannot exceed 60 lbs.
Would the Tohatsu 6HP be a good choice for this situation? Will there be a significant increase in power to push the boat against wind, waves or current?
Thanks
Mike
