I really couldn't tell as there were a few people in the boat. I never saw the trailer.

The 272 would check most of the boxes that you are looking for, it's just hard to get it to go fast.

Ended up using Shieldsflex II. I wish I had used this years ago as its easy to work with. Added a shut off ball valve between the transom and strainer, and a drain down near the pump.
