I would advise that you leave the motor alone and have fun with the boat....

I am asked this question about 10 times a day and I don't have a standard
response but my advice is to leave it alone. A supercharger on that engine
can recover some lost hp due to elevation or may make it more spunky out of
the hole (at the risk of killing your drive) but the boat will not be a different
boat after investing in the supercharger.
If you're a full on "sick puppy" for speed on the water which most of the people on this website are, buy a different boat. That's a real nice boat
but it was never designed to be fast. Nor will it ever be.
Hope I'm not bursting your enthusiasm bubble.

Also you all but kill the resale of the boat with a supercharger on it... :p people in the market for that type of boat are frightened of them....
A year ago I sold a 22ft Stingray that had a small blower on it...I had to take the blower off to get any interest at all....after removing it ...it sold in a week...for the same price I was asking with the blower... :p
