    Outboard HP Advise

    Been looking around for a senator in the 450-500 size and there's one on TM for a good price.

    Its a RC500 which looks in reasonable nick, only downside is its got a 60hp two stroke on it. My old man's got a RC450 with a four stroke suzuki 60hp on it and it gets along really well.

    Would the 60hp two stroke be a bit under powered? Recommended minimum is 70hp on the senator website.

    Its got a four blade prop and permatrim which makes me think he's trying to accommodate the smaller engine.

    Any thoughts?
