two stroke wise nothing less than 90hp on 16 ft size boat, It depends on 3 things, the size of the boat, the number of ppl in the boat and the age of the rider. Assuming you have a 16-19ft and 2-4 ppl in the boat to give a teenager a good ride you are going to want no less than 150hp if you have just young kids you dont really need much more than 100hp. If you want to give a terrifying ride you will need 200+ hp.

How should you pull someone out of the water and onto a small boat?

If pulling a live person into a small boat you must instruct them to help as much as they can. As you start pulling the person in you must take the time to even out the weight by carefully leaning back. As you finally get the floater into the boat both of you must get back to the center boat. Otherwise the boat will tip.
