is a yamaha 40 hp to heavy for my 1425 classic tiller?

[1425classictilller]

I own a 1425 Classic tiller lund. The maxium rating is a 40 hp. I have a 25 Yamaha on the back wich works great but found it is a bit slow for my liking especially of you have three or more in the boat. I am looking to put a 40 hp yamaha 4-stroke on the back. I am concerned that it might be too heavy after seeing the size of the 40 hp.

Any thought? Does anyone have a 1425 Tiller with a 40 hp and how do you like it?
