I got a 15 on 14' aluminum and it moves along good. Fiberglass boat is heavier I am sure so maybe a 25 would be perfect to more than enough. Paul

Is it one of the rough-finished Gamefishers, the ones without any gel coat? If so, I wouldn't go more than 15hp on that boat. My buddy had one with a 9.9 and it moved well with 1 person.
