Why would you want to take the chance of ruining your transom.If the manufacturer rates it for a certain amount of H.P. than that is what is suppose to be for safety measures.

It is not 'illegal' to use an over-sized engine. If one wants to risk damage to their boat by ignoring manufacturers recommendations it is totally legal to do so. There are no laws against stupidity.
