Your boat should have a data plate near the stern. (It's normally screwed to the inside of the stern.) On it will be the max horsepower you can run, because no two boats are alike.

What is the weight of a 16 ft Century Resorter ski boat? this is a wood boat
The smallest motor for a 16 foot Lowe boat is about 30 horsepower. The maximum size should be no more than 100 horsepower.
I have a 1980,115 Johnson Outboard on a Very Heavy 16ft Crestliner Fiberglass boat,I can get it up to 62kms per hour with 4 people in it .(I used a GPS to test this )
Look at the manufacturers plate on the boat for max HP and or weight. If there is none either call them or consult a marine engineer or body and get a rating tag fitted. My two previous motors on my 16 footer have been 90hp and 115hp.
The weight of a 17.5 ft fiberglass bass boat typically ranges from 1,200 to 1,600 pounds, depending on the design and features. Factors such as the boat's construction, materials used, and additional equipment like motors and electronics can also influence its overall weight. Always check the manufacturer's specifications for the most accurate information.
598 lbs
Yes you can. You have to know 2 things about your boat: 1. Can you pull someone out of the water with your motor? ( for a 16 ft fiberglass boat you need at the very least 80hp, but a 120 does better) 2. Do you have a place to mount the tower and not have it rip out? There is a lot of pressure on that thing
