ive never driven one but i know the boat you're talking about. you need atleast 20 hp. i had a 11' checkmate with a 20, and it only went about 28mph. depending on your plans for the boat, i would sugguest between 25-45 hp. i would imagine 50 hp is the most you would want to put on a baot that size.

Those hulls don't respond to hp very well.. they are very narrow, and don't like any more then 225 lbs of persons (total) in them.. plus they have issues when you ask them to float with any more then 125 lbs of motor on the back.


o yeah and they chine walk like no other

depending on what you want will depend on your set up.......if you want go fast look for a 15" omc / johnson there are a ton of go fast parts just check out the SST 45 class boats...if it's for the kids stick to a 25 hp max with the 15" mid

my boat is very similar im running a 50hp 2cyl, it ran about 34-36mph with a old 35hp johnson. i ran the 50hp once but with a 11p prop. wasnt much faster up top would pull all the way too the rev limiter. picked up a 14.5p today. so illtest and tune this weekend, hope too get over 50mph..........

My friends Mini hawk runs about 35MPH with a 25HP Merc. It could probley see 40MPH if it was set up correct

[fastlane35]

[fastlane35]

i was think about of a tatashu 25 cause of the faster rpm and thier pretty light
