1st of all.... WELCOME! Engine HP size depends on the size of your boat and your intended use. On a 16ft glass boat the bare min would be 50hp, 17ft thru 18 ft it would be 75hp.
On my 2000 Capri Cuddy 1802 I had a 90HP Mercury, which gave the boat nice performance with other people on board. Please post the particulars about your boat and a picture,then we can offer better advice.
