Yes, you can use a more powerful engine ...
. They should, however, some additional weight on the front face of the elevator.
Its all about balance. First check that if its tail is strong enough to have a bigger engine .... it should be.
Not sure. While the case does not destroy itself once the ship has been designed for a particular weight and speed - more than the parameters, the boat difficult to control, and body materials are not strong enough to impose unnecessary burdens on the mirrors or the trunk even fail. Tinnie is known to split along the keel, by excessive vibration.
The insurance is invalid, and although there is no specific law in your country with regard to the oversupply of the position of waiting for the authorities are increasingly based on the assessment by the manufacturer.
Develops bar for a certain amount of weight and thrust to be applied. If you exceed the limit, you risk seriously damaging the transom and the shipwreck. Majority, I do not recommend.
Can you handle it? Yes
Is this a good idea .......? No
It can also be a violation of your policy. Check with your agent.
Some good answers here .. I read that riveted aluminum boats leads harder than designed escape (aka Overpowered) and oval with rivets in his work back through fatigue ..
The boat is certified for the engine weight, goals, etc.. I advise against it.
I agree with the other answers. NO. Many boats are for a reason: security.
