Yamaha Malta 2 stoke mix

I have just managed to get my hands on a 2001 Yamaha Malta 2 stoke outboard 6AL5-AO
The sticker on it says mix at 100:1 would I it be better to run it at a mix of 50:1?
Would I also be correct is saying it’s a 3hp?
Thanks

I always ran mine on 100:1 with no problems. They're great little engines, and yes they are supposed to be 3hp, but I had a 4hp yam on the same boat, and never noticed any difference
