I have a five horse power 4 stroke Honda (weighs about 60 lbs) and it is fine even going "uphill" against Spring currents. A 3.5 HP would probably work OK, but be slow upstream in the Spring. A 6 HP (e.g., Tohatsu, Nissan or Mercury) would probably work well too.
If II am not mistaken, the maximum limit is about 8 HP or ~
80 Lbs which would is a little heavy to easily haul to the boats from the parking area just up from the dock.

If one were to buy/borrow a motor for the wooden rowboats at Fletchers, how much horsepower would you need to be able to handle the current there?
