Im not sure about the 7000i for surfcasting. I found it heavy and and a little awkward. I would compare it w/ the old 7000HSN first, before purchasing if your dead set on the 7 model.
I also have the new 6500 Abu, which VERY nice and comparable to the old 6500 version. I would give the 6500 a hard look, esp. if your just starting w/ conventional
