[QUOTE=Philm;2950377]no clue what I want for it right now. I have a couple people who have PMed me asking to buy it as is, but I am not sure which way I would like to go with it yet. PM me an offer and maybe we can figure something out. How many hours does your motor have on it?
75 hours on mine. MRD said about 625-650hp it pushes my boat 90mph, with a light load. I pm'd you with more questions on yours. |
Weight rigged
I took it to the scale and it was 4520# with 360# of fuel in it 58 gallons @ 6.2 PPG (I droped the boat into the water and took the trailer to get a weight and removed that weight from the number). I measured the fuel level with a ruler and used a level to make sure the tank was level. So really close. I weighed everythink loose in the boat and it came up to 82# all the coast guard safety stuff, bumpers, tool kit, etc. I really thought all the stuff I had aboard would weigh more. So mine rigged empty would be about 4,078#
For S&G I weighed the very heavy rear seat bottom... Just about 50# thats 1/2 mph, lol |

Not a bad idea. what do you want for the 598?
Also do you know the trans angle of the 29 Kryptonite? I am talking to Arneson about a drive. |
Damn Don, that is pretty light. I am slightly suprised, I figured more like 5000# wet. Good to know.

I did a slight miss calc on the fuel left in the tank. Figure 4300# wet without fuel. I found out the hard way yesterday that they have a sump in the tank below the sending unit/ pickup. So 5 1/2 " of fuel measured by the pickup is not 1/2 tank (the tank is 11" there). So tomorrow I am going to set the guage with fuel in the tank not inches of fuel. i set it by inches of fuel in the tank. I thought I had an 11" deep tank, measuring by the pickup.
there is no sump in the tank..You are probably feeling the step in the hull. there were a hand full built with glass tanks( late 04 early 05). I believe yours was one of them. most have aluminum tanks which are 95 gallons. |
