I would like to know if a 50hp evinrude would have enough power to pull a skier or someone on a innertube. The boat is a 15' hustler.

Not a large, or weak skier, as it would take too long to plane.<br />What is the normal top speed, and how long does it take to plane-out with two people of average wieght?

I am not real sure about top speed, Im guessing about 25 to 28 mph. It does not take it very long to plane out. I have a whale tail on it and I think it planes out pretty quick.
