Default How much is enough?

How much horsepower on a fishing boat motor is enough horse power? I'm pretty stunned at some of the boats I see with 150 or higher horse power! About 60 seems like plenty to me.

Depends on the body of water its going on. Around here 15hp is more than enough, take it to lake Erie and at least 100hp is recommended.


America is not the land of (get everything you don't deserve) Its the land the (work your ass off and make your own way), if you don't like it go to china, they have free health care and 1$ a day wages.
