you recommend the single motor to be assembled, from the project it says single 250 double 400,
can I mount a single 300 4 stroke?
what brand?
is the 300 excessive?
what maximum weight should a single motor mounted on a bracket have?

I answer myself, I assume that I can also mount a single motor from 250 min to 400 max exactly? it does not change whether single or double.

good evening,
I officially ask the designer or whoever for him to be able to answer my question,
I have a doubt I would like to clarify it I think it is important for me and my boat.
I look forward to your answers thank you very much.

You have a choice: single engine or twin.
I recommend a single 250 HP. Check the building thread of Curacao Peter, he was happy with a single 300 HP.
My original recommendation for twins was 280 as in two 140 or 145. Some have installed up to 400 HP (2 x 200 HP) but I find that excessive.
Those recommendations are my opinion. The structure, transom and bottom can take any of those combinations.
