Zodiac 360 + 15 HP 4 stroke Mercury

Hi I am looking at buying a ZODIAC CADET FastRoller Acti-V 360 Air Deck to combine with a 15 hp 4 stroke Mercury (purely because I want a new engine and cannot get hold a 2 stroke)
Does anyone have the same combination, if so can you advise re performance etc.
Thanks

Just had my first day out in my 3.6m yamaha ali floored sib with 20hp 2 stroke 2005 engine.

15hp would be plenty, and I like speed............

with 3 or 4 (men) people in the boat things maybe different, and more power maybe needed. But with a modest load, 15hp mercury will be perfect...

Told 2 stroke power in more than 4 stroke, but modern 4 strokes are fairly light anyway.

But seen youtubes of 2 strokes winning at rug of war...... with same hp...

I am no expert at all.....
