[Electric Boats] How Much Thrust is Enough

 

Considering a pair of trolling motors with 164lbs total thrust - approximately 4HP. Wood sailboat is 5,000 lbs with 20' waterline. Going against a 4 knot current is this boat going to go backwards or forwards?

I don't know how to figure this out but I'm sure somebody on this forum can.

Thanks,
Doug
