Default Fountain weight?

I'm going to need a lift for my 32 Fountain, anybody know how much it weighs?
Any suggestions on what I should look for or avoid?

Depends on year but it's gonna be around 7400lbs meaning a 10k. I could use a 12k and have a 10k at the 19mm of LOTO it's a heavy duty poly tank lift if youre interested give me a call or text 405-388-6998

Dry weight 7400. Plus 8.34 pounds per gallon of water and 6.15 pounds per gallon of gas. Then there is whatever gear you have onboard. I'm not sure of the capacities on your 32. If you estimate 120 gallons of gas, 10 gallons of water, and then add 200 pounds for gear (ice and beer?) you are close to 8500 total pounds. Sounds like the 10k lift flying J is suggesting will have you covered.

my twin 29 weighs 7k dry. And from what others have said that is probably right. A 32 probably is going to be much more than 2-300lbs more your only talking 3 ft of glass. But I would beleive 7400. Factor in full tank of fuel at 700lbs, 100lbs for rest of the lube and gear probably easily 8500-8900lbs fully loaded plus trailer. 10k lift should do it, as I would guess your probably not going to sit on a full fuel tank all the time and full gear. Realistically probably a 8k load.
