WELCOME ABOARD!!!!
Wheres the pics maaaaaaaaan? we are pic junkies..lol
That 25 will be fine......
As a oversized kicker...Honestly the 50 is a bit undergunned as well.
I assume you could get from A to B...but add bodies, coolers & gear..well you get the picture..
On a 19ft Cuddy, I would say a 90 is min requirement.
Did I mention pics? lol

WEEEEEE CAN"T SEEEE IT YET!! No really welcome, as CBK said it would be slow going, the 90 would be better.

A 25hp will get you around the lake, but at about 7 mph maybe 8 mph depending on elevation.
I have a 25hp 2 stroke Johnson (1995) on my 21 foot Cuddy cabin (cheiftain) as a spare kicker motor. At sea level she will do 7mph wot, just switched to a larger, less pitch prop to get the rpms up and I hope to get 8 mph.
The 140 hp i/o tops out at 26 mph wot at sea level, fully loaded with 4 POBs
