32 weight ?
 

To all you 32 guys , I'm curious what does you boat weigh on the trailer ? It will be next spring before i start shopping , but planning to start shopping for a new truck soon . Also still trying to decide on a 28 or 32 . I know a 28 could be pulled by just about anything .

Just go ahead and get an F350 and be done with it because in a couple years you will be wanting a new 37. :ernaehrung004:

Never actually weighed mine. Its listed at 8k dry so I figure I'm around 11k with trailer and fuel.

They got about 500lbs lighter in 1998-1999 with the use of newer materials and composites.

My 2000 is 7500 dry and 32 over a 28 hands down no comparison i have a 32 and a good freind has a 28 great boat but the 32 is in a different league

Thanks for the input guys . Griff's boat would be at the top of my list if its still for sale when I'm ready .

500 Lbs is a lot of weight from year to the next. Was it because they started vacuum bagging also ?

How did 500 lbs less change the ride, handling and in the rough ? Less weight can = more speed but lighter boat can = rougher ride in some cases

just asking.

My 32 will crush waves with any up to 35' boat out there and it is like your on rails at 85 plus mph

I've run next to a 1999 32 at LOTO on a poker run. He had 496HO's and I have 502mpi's with CMI's so close to same hp.
It seemed like I could run a little faster in choppy water, but I do have ext boxes and my engines are jackshafted forward about 16 inches.

Griff what year is yours and how fast does it run?

1997. 73-74mph with 502mpi's.
