In the brochures and sales literature I have seen my 21 foot cuddy powered by a 90 even though it is rated for up to 180. I have seen a couple of large cuddy cabin hulls powered by 115 engines. I originally had a 125 powering my Manatee but recently changed to a 150 and probably will put on a 175 in the future. Too much horsepower is never enough!
If you are only intending to use the 115 for a relatively short period of time, it will probably serve you well. But, I would not be surprised if in the future you decide to go larger. It is nice and also reassuring to have more horsepower than you need or intend to use.
