Hmm I bet that puts tongue weight around 1200 lbs. That truck I think weighs about 7600 or so with some fuel. Yup that exceeds your last rig rating by just a wee bit. How much fuel in the boat?

I'm afraid to know what it actually weighs. I know I can push around a TG in the water by hand pretty easy... this fat pig, not so much! Any guesses on the weight? The trailer itself is probably around 4500 - 5000 lbs, possibly more.
