Default HP Rating?

What formula do dealers use for horse power if boat does not have a rating?

One I found is length x width x 2 - 90 round up to nearest 5. Is this a good guide? Had a dealer tell me he would not sell me the motor I was asking for. Want a 200 using the formula above comes to 214 round up to 215. Seems like I have room to spare. I see bass boats smaller than mine with 250's hanging off the back of them.
