is motor big enough?

[klark2008]

yea i have been trying to take all of this info into account. The boat is a 22 ft McKee craft freedom 22. I believe he said its either a 2005 or 2006. 22 degree dead rise, 8 ft 6 inch beam deep v hull. Just about all the info I find says its a 3000 pound dry weight. I am not trying to break any speed records but like you said 3000 pounds seems kind of heavy. I am relatively new to boats this size. Never had anything bigger than 18 footers. Its really going to suck towing this thing around until I can afford a slip or a marina that will let me keep it on land.
