Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
I did not see you trailer but I would say the least would be 1500 lbs up to maybe 2500 lbs for a steel trailer.
Microwave = 20 lbs
A/C = 75 lbs
They really do not make too much of a difference.
I would say from a bare bones model to a fully equiped model would be maybe 300 lbs.
I was there when they lifted mine off the flatbed with the crane and it showed 8400 lbs on the crane scale from the factory will all options.

Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
A friend of mine with a 98' 36 O/L had
his on a 12k polylift down at LOTO upon
the reccomendations of the lift people
down at LOTO.
However, when they were doing some work on the
dock, they put it on a 10k econolift at another dock,
and it lifted it no problem.

Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
Don't get me wrong-bigger is better...but If I could keep the boat under 10,500 that lift would work....the next size up is 13k and is alot more $$$$. Thanks again for the replys

Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
Another thought is how often are you going to fuel your boat up before you put it on the hoist? For me, Even if I fuel up that morning I am going to have 50 gallons less fuel (at least)in the boat by the time I get back to my slip?
Hoists generally lift more than they are rated as well. I realize bigger is better but I did a test with a formula 33'6 Sr1 on my old 8,000# poly lift (With fuel the boat is right about 10,000) and it actually lifted it up accept for about 6" of the drives still being in the water. I would say if you have a good lift it will legitamately lift about 1,000lbs more than it is rated.
My Apache weighs 10,000 dry and has a 200 gallon fuel tank and I have no concerns about my new 12,000# polylift holding her safe and sound.
Does anybody have a guess what a 38' steel triple axle eagle trailer weighs?

Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
Not arguing the point here, but a 7000 lb lift won't lift my empty 29 Outlaw. How would a 10k lift pick up a 36 Outlaw? Like I said, I'm not arguing the point, I just can't figure it out.

Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
I have witnessed a 10,000 lb Poly lift brand lift bring a 36' outlaw to full height. I'm not a lift engineer but they evidently make them to hold more than they are rated for. It is kind of like my pickup. It is rated to tow 15,800 lbs via gooseneck hitch, but it will pull 17,000 that way all day. It isn't legal because I would go over my combined gross weight and it might hurt my ability to warranty drive train problems, but It will do it.

Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
In my business we design belt and chain drives for machinery, shaft couplings and even complete conveyor systems.
There is something called service factor that we design into everything as an added level of safety, and to assure that even if a customer overloads a system beyond what they claim to need that it will not fail.
We normally always use a 1.5 service factor meaning that it will handle 50% more load, torque, etc. if needed.
There is NO WAY on God's Green Earth that I would put my boat on a lift that was not designed to handle at least a couple of thousand pounds more then the boat could ever weigh fully loaded.
I'm a believer that more is better.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Re: 36 Outlaw wet weight
What's a few more hundred when you got thousands invested in a nice boat. Where will this lift and boat be sitting? If you're maxed out with the boat in the air and a cruiser goes by it ain't gonna be pretty.
