Default Re: Is a 115 four stroke enough?

I once had a 74 Seafari 20' with a Chrysler 105. I had a cupped 15p bronze prop. Got on plane easily with 4 people, topped out at about 27-28 mph, cruised at 24-25. If you're not in a hurry, a 115 will do you just fine. Not many people are stupid enough to run more than 30 mph all the time in the open ocean anyway.
