A 90 will do it. And considering WELLCRAFT sold them with 90's from the factory, I would say it is a safe bet. The old 1.6L SEA-DRIVE was the same powerhead as a 90HP propshaft rated engine. It was rated at 115HP at the flywheel, but in 85 when propshaft ratings came out it became a 90HP. My 1.6L SEA-DRIVE was no powerhouse, but it did plane out my cuddy with power to spare(but not much). Topped out around 24 or so IIRC, and cruised about 18-20. The downside was it was a FUEL HOG! Because the engine was loaded so hard, it GULPED fuel.
