Direct from Yamaha's website for the 20 inch Long Shaft version:

Per this link below, I think the new 2017 Yamaha F90 weighs in at 353lbs - because it says the new model is 13lbs lighter than the previous model (which was 366lbs)

From my experience, I would also agree with others from this post - the F70 is a great match for the Montauk hull. The power / weight ratio is a nice balance, it sips fuel, it's very quiet, reliable and very quick & responsive.
