Try searching past postings. A short while back there was a very good discussion on this very subject.

Re: outboard for typhoon day sailer
Ken,
I have a four horse Johnson Yachtwin long shaft and it pushes the typhoon along fine, if a bit noisily. My brother has a four horse Yamaha which seems to be a bit more powerful and quieter. I would not go above four or five horse. If you are in sheltered waters you might even get away with a two as wome have on this bulletin board.
Good Luck
