Not impossible, if the boat is rated for it.
Most smaller speed boats can handle it, the fast moving fishing boats can do it, and the aluminum river sleds, also.
Just depends on the type of boat. However, people have been known to do stupid things, and setting a too-big O/B on a too-small boat just scratches the surface.
