Will it work? Mariner 25 on 16x48 flat

I inherited a 2 stroke mariner 25. Looking at the pic (sorry I don't have the serial on me) what year do you think this motor is? I believe it's around a 1995 does that seem close at least?

Also, I have been looking for a flat to put the motor on. Found this 16x48 flat that i am looking to buy this evening. Would this motor push this boat decently? If so does anyone have an estimated speed.

Boat is made out of 3/16 aluminum. Current owner estimated that the boat weighs 200lbs but i'm not so sure. Can anyone estimate if this weight is even close?

My motor is tiller handle so I'd be removing the console (unless I can hook it up to current steering and throttle easily. Never converted tiller handle to steering in the past or know what's involved. Current motor on boat is blown but it's 140hp Evinrude which is way overpowered)

Any help would be appreciated!IMG_6167.PNGIMG_6174.PNGIMG_6173.JPGIMG_6172.JPGIMG_6171.JPGIMG_6170.JPG
