You can never have to much HP.
That being said, a diesel creates its HP at much lower RPM's and will generate a ton more torque. This allows it to spin bigger props and can negate out the larger HP difference between them and a gas engine. Look at the Ford F350's the lower HP diesel can pull a ton of weight and it takes a much larger gas engine to do the same thing. That equates to boats as well.
I will be interested to hear what others are experiencing in this boat.
