Trent,<br /> Welcome to Iboats.<br /> <br /> How about a bit of info about your Zodiac? <br />(size, model, weight, etc...)<br /><br /> Cheers,<br /> Snow

Snow,<br /><br />I got my zodiac from a green barret, so I do not know the make or model. All i know is that the special forces used it. It is 11'6" long and 5'6" wide. It's pretty light, two people could cary it easily.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Trent

Is there a coast guard rating plate in it?<br /><br />By the size alone I wouldn't go with less than 15hp, a 25hp would probably be a safe all around match for it.....<br /><br />Cheers,<br /> Snow.
