Going to look at the mentioned boat and it has a 50 hp. outboard on it. Would this be enough for this boat? Have not been able to find any specs on it and the Caravelle website does not go back that far. It is a tri-hull

Well I'm new to this myself but that does sound a little under powered. I have a 75 16' with a 140hp I/0 on it which is probably a little big. Somewhere in the middle like a 90 sounds good for that.
