I have an 18.5 ft glass boat, 5 hp pushes me faster than 4. I don't know how fast it will push as I've never ran it wide open. I would suggest two things. Get a 4 stroke, its way worth it! Secondly, if you decide on a 10 and have an electric start ensure you buy a model you can pull start in an emergency. If you ever had an electrical problem you can always get back with a pull of the kicker motor.
