Re: Weight of a 1987 35'
 

It's like 15,300 with NO!!!! fuel or water or gear. I'm right below the rating for my truck. A little rain while towing and I'm probably screwed. :eek:

Re: Weight of a 1987 35'
 

I wonder how much of that is the boat and how much is the trailer. I actually thought it would be heavier than that on the trailer. I'll bet my 357 alone weighs close to 10,000.

Formula says the boat is 10300. Don't know about the trailer. I need to weigh it alone. You getting a new boat?

Cool link. I see 19,200 for the Dually with 4.30s. I think that must have been what I was thinking instead of 19,800.

Al - Yeah I would love to get a Fastech. I've really been wrestling with the idea of selling the 357 or not. If I can do it quickly, easlily and relatively painlessly then I will let her go. If it's a pain to sell then I'll probably end up keeping her and just spend some coin on updates. I love how much room is in the older Formulas like ours. But, I also like the idea that if I had the kind of power that's in my 357 in a new 353 I'd be going 10 mph faster.
