Weight of 19 foot 4.3 I/O Aluminum?

[Grant Brown]

I am buying a 1993 - 19 foot Spectrum Aluminum open bow with a 4.3 Mercruiser next week.

I currently have a 1972 - 17 foot Glastron with a Mercury 70hp outboard. I wonder how they compare in weight.

Thanks,
Grant

Nada show boat weight 1275, plus trailer, 1400 lbs. not much more than your current boat.

It is a very good price and he says he'd be happy to run it on the lake for a serious buyer. The problem is that it will be pretty cold here for the next week or so - somewhere in the 5 to 17 degree F range. I'd hate to run it and then freeze the manifolds or block on the drive home.
Seeing as it's so cold, what would you guys do?
