Enough Power?

[mmtwa]

I got a 85 champion 18.5 ft. fish and ski free with a blown 150 black max. I have a good 88 70hp merc. Was wondering if it would have enough power to get the boat at least on plane. Don't care about speed just enough power to get to get to a few fishing spots. Any body know where I can get specs. on the boat? Thanks

She'll probably plane, especially with a light load. May need some help with trim tabs or even a stupid hydrofoil if planing is your only requirement.
