It all depends on your boat first and the actual skiers to a lessor degree. If you have smaller ski or fishing boat (19' or shorter), then that is more than enough power to pull whatever or whoever you want to with it. I am 6'1" and stocky in my earlier days, but I have skied behind a 17' bass boat with a 70 hp outboard pretty effortlessly. If your boat is 20' or larger, then it comes down to the weight of your boat, the type of prop you have, etc. and it is less likely that you will be skiing much with that boat/motor combination. **Worse case, try it... You will either pull the skiier up, or not. Remember too that you can change your prop to a power take off prop that will give you more BITE from a dead stop for this situation, but takes a little of your top end speed away.

The numbers you've provided likely refer to a specific model and serial number of a Johnson Seahorse outboard motor. "41 E" typically indicates the model designation, while "350 SN 373229" suggests the serial number, which can help identify the manufacturing details. The "DT 10" may refer to the engine's power or specifications. For precise information, it's best to consult a Johnson outboard motor service manual or dealer.
