In Florida it is illegal to exceed the maximum rated horsepower on a boat. You have to check for your state. Most Insurance companies will not approve a claim for illegal boats (overpowered). If you are ever involved in a mishap, and the engine HP was the reason, then your liability becomes a problem.
Responsible boat dealers do not install overpowered engines on boats.
Your choice and your risk.
