Default Weight of the older 30' s-types
I am wondering if anyone has any idea what the mid 80's 30' s-types weighed in at? Any chance someone has an old spec sheet from back then. Mine has big blocks which were not a factory option but I already know the weight difference between small and big blocks so I am wondering what the boat weighed with small blocks. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It depends on how much water they've soaked up.

I used that weight for my Scarab and later took it to the scales and found it dead on.

6500 dry

150x7=1050 gas + 200-400 for gear

puts it at just under 8000 wet (heavy)

Simply what makes it the best in the big waves.... It still is a lot easier to add power to an engine than to add strenght to a hull...
