Very nice off shore boat. I do not think a 150HP is enough for that boat. If it was a bay boat yes. I think too much boat for the motor. Someone mentioned that a had a weight of over 2000 lbs. If that is the case you need at least a 225HP. Just my opinion.

You will find a wealth of information on that boat on the Hull Truth.com and those guys will be able to tell you if the 150 is enough. Sea Hunt has a very good reputation. If your friend is looking at a new boat, he should consider getting prices from Chatlees in North Carolina and Ed's Marine Superstore in Virginia. Both of these dealers are normally thousands less than local dealers. Chatlees has a better reputation than Ed's though.

the 150 could push it with a low pitch prop but it would be slow. maybe mid 30's

it might. a guy i know has a skeeter 20bay with that f150 and he runs 53 with just him and half fuel. the boat weighs 1750. that seahunt has a lot more wind resistance with the bow and tee top. a lot more boat in the water also cant get the bow rise like the skeeter. i dont know maybe 40.

idk about 40, that boat has a huge hull and high sides.... depends on how it moves through the water. And how much drag it has
