    Outboard capacity on boat help?!?

    I have a 14' fiberglass boat, there is no capacity plate on it. It seems to be a runabout boat. There was a 75hp on there from the recent owner that needs a bit of work to get it up and running. I was wondering if I could fit a 100hp on the boat without over powering it? Thanks for the help!
