Seafarer V Sea - Motor Query??

[Renny1]

Would a Yamaha 4 stroke high thrust 60hp be enough motor for this boat?
Any thoughts on what would be the most suitable motor for this boat?

yes it will be enough, but only just, a lot of Vseas had 50's on them when they were new, but they had only JUST enough power, a 70 was good and a 90 fantastic, the older ones had a bit of a problem with water coming over the back when a big motor was fitted and a couple of people fishing as well, but some were modifed to raise the motor well a bit and almost fixed the problem.
