I weighed it the hull is 97 lbs and the hood is 11 lbs. Its not the lightest hull but prob the strongest. Lighter means thinner in fiberglass. Thinner means breaks easier when hits bottom ocassionally during surfriding in shallow water. I looked all around and rode other hulls lighter and heavier and this one is right for me. I rode Scotts Matrix 7 or 8 times in the surf and loved it more each time. For some lighter is better for me it doesnt feel heavy in the water at all. May have it together by the end of Thanksgiving weekend. Will start a build thread when i get it back from paint next week sometime.
