That 1985 rating of 235 probably corresponds to the year OMC came out with the V-6 235 power on their Sea Drive motors, or the same year the 235 regular outboard came about.  I know Wellcraft made full transom boats specifically for the SeaDrive motors.  Stick with 200 hp or less and you can get all the insurance you want.
