Minimum Hp for 23 CC??

[wesman]

Hello all, I am posting this question to help out a family member in need - the all mighty father in law. He owns 1982 or 1983 seacraft CC (unk if it's a potter or not) and is currently running a 225 Mercury black max. It runs awesome but he's looking to downsize HP for better economy and he's not a speed demon. What is the minimum HP recommended for this hull in order to still run on plane easily. Couldn't find it in the manuals posted on the site. Thanks all!
