Hi ausfishers, thinking of buying a 5. 5m seafarer Viking. My only concern is it has a 100hp for stroke Yamaha. I'm thinking that it might be a little underpowered. What's everyone's thoughts?
Thanks

Swear that post got edited and it used to say 5.0 not 5.5.
I reckon that's on the borderline, but it depends on usage. If you intend to take out 4 mates + heaps of gear all the time, I think you will find the ceiling of that 100hp Yammie very quickly. Lighter use, probably no issue. If it were my boat, I'd want a 115 on it to cover all circumstances.
100 should be fine. I have always been happy with my 115 Yammy on Vagabond (21 foot) (but its a 2 stroke V4). Cheers

Thanks for the replies, I ended up giving it a miss as it had a few very soft spots in the floor. Stringers weren't good either.. Thanks again.
