The Surtees 495 Workmate is an outstanding option for those looking for a highly capable, quality-built alloy boat under 5 metres. A great first boat or for those looking to downsize. With class-leading performance combined with easy handling, towing and a small storage footprint, it’s no wonder why the 495 Workmate has earned itself a cult-like following.

Safety comes as standard on the 495 Workmate with airtight pressure-tested flotation compartments incorporated into the Tough Deck™ hull design. Surtees iQ™ technology is built into every square inch of the 495 Workmate, from a smooth, non-pounding ride to incredible stability at rest – you won’t find a smarter fishing boat for the size.

The launch of Yamaha’s F70 changed customers’ expectations of outboards in this category forever.

Beating in the heart of the F70 is a unique four-cylinder, 16-valve design activated by a single overhead camshaft. The 4-valves per cylinder valvetrain has dramatically increased this outboard’s volumetric efficiency, effectively transferring more air and exhaust at a more efficient rate. This makes the F70 more fuel-efficient, promotes a stronger torque band and makes the F70 lighter than all four-stroke and direct injected two-stroke competitors.

The F70’s awesome performance offers huge versatility and makes it the perfect power option for a huge range of mid-sized fishing boats and pleasure craft.

The 70 horsepower is now available in both traditional Yamaha grey and new pearlescent white colour options, in a long shaft only.

The Surtees Difference

Some manufacturers will tell you that boat building hasn’t changed much through the passage of time.

However, with modern materials and technology, overlaid with new ideas, Surtees has enhanced time-honoured ways to develop what is arguably the safest, best performing range of fishing boats on the water.

We like to call this inventive streak Surtees IQ, or SiQ for short. SiQ ensures that Surtees stays well ahead of the pack by continuing to improve, fine-tune and innovate. Which begs the question, why would you settle for a boat with a lower IQ?
