Question
In this format what size outboard is recommended? Also is it possible to do a flooding keel to increase stability at rest? and what size are berths and is there full height sitting room is cuddy?

Answer
My recommendation is a single 150hp.

Regarding a floodable keel, this is only really required on a deep keel to give more stability at rest. The keel floods and because of the lost buoyancy the chines drop into the water.

The Alloy Sea Boat has a more moderate but still a big vee of 15 degrees. The deep vee's are 20 degrees. This means that they are slower to get up and plane and need the floodable keel at rest.
