I have a 10' pelican jon boat and it will plane with only 4hp. Try shifting your weight to the bow of the boat, and let the motor full throttle up, and try in calm waters. Should plane, because I have the same length boat, but I have 10 hp less.

something wrong with that 15HP

I have an 11'2" Avon and it planes just fine with a 4HP Mariner

I weigh 210 pounds

yeah, soap and water - no armour-all

if you want to UV protect it, use something like 303 protectant or a cover.

That boat will plane with a 6 hp single cylinder engine.
