Re: 25 seafari questions - weight calculations
Found a 1965 Formula catalog that showed the 233 at 4200 lb. That was the original mold and they put a whole lot of glass in it. I have seen other quotes at 4100 lb for later years. That is dry with engine. My old Seabird 24 was 3900 lb with a 350 outdrive. Subtract the engine and around 3000 lb seems reasonable for those boats. The 25 has more weight up high than the Seabird and is 1.4 ft longer. My 25 seems more solid than the Seabird and some heavier overall, but that's just my impression, have not weighed it. Still, 3000 doesn't seem too far off.
