Arctic 22

Does anybody have any idea what size outboard you need to get 35-40 knots out of a Halmatic Arctic 22?

I've found a reasonable hull but no engine and now my Ribtec has moved on I'd like something that does 35kts ish as well.

Thanks in advance

Chris

Given that the Atlantic 21 and Arctic 22 are very similar, I would imagine the performance to be similar too. This apprently does 46 with a 250hp: http://www.stormforce.biz/forsale.html so you'd probably get a tad less on an Arctic.

Is it that black one in Southampton your looking at?

Twin Mariner 90hp 2 strokes will do about 37-38 knts.
