If I remember correctly the old boat weighed in at 1920 lbs. My sons are telling me that the newer ones are a different animal. |  Ive got a F150 on my '85.....you'll need the 150 for the hole-shot.  You'll be happy with it, I get great fuel econ outta mine.

 Lucky Jack - .......The Surprise is not old; no one would call her old. She has a bluff bow, lovely lines. She's a fine seaboat: weatherly, stiff and fast, very fast, if she's well handled. No, she's not old; she's in her prime.
