Choosing an engine
If you want to potter around the estuary in a small boat then you can choose the minimum size of engine recommended by your boat manufacturer. If you want the boat to ‘plane’(skim along the surface at close to horizontal aspect) then you will need more power so you will need at least 6hp, even for an inflatable and of course more for a traditional fiberglass boat.
