Trying to get some feed back on engine HP for a Lund 1775 Pro V SE
A guy has one for sale with a 75 hp engine. Does that seem underpowered?




Thanks

Re: Not enough power?

depends what the max hp rating is for that boat. I have a lund rebel 1650v the max rating is 60hp and i have a 40hp it is maybe a little underpowered if you get a heavy load on the boat but for one or two pple it is just fine.

A 75 probably isn't too bad on a tinny. However, you want at least 70% of the max rated HP for acceptable performance.

Guy in town has one for sale with a 150 on it.

I would say under powered.
