Default Avenger weight

Anyone have an actual weight of an Avenger loaded with fuel and water (with 496's) on a manning triple axle? I am guessing 12,500-13,000?

Take a look at my thread about a Vyper....that was with 40 gallons of gas. Both boats hold 169 gallons so that alone is a couple hundred.

There are other things to consider as well, air cond? How many batteries? Porcelin head? Macerator? All these things add up.

Steel trailer vs aluminum, big difference.

Without any info I would guess closer to 13k

Just the boat should be around 8500 to 9000lbs

Dropped mine off on a weight scale, it had 1/4 tank of fuel, no water, no other junk in it, triple axle Vanguard, engines are 525efi's, both boat and trailer came in at 13,850lbs.

I was going to guess around 14,000. When I drove from Omaha to Green Bay to pick up mine, I was glad a buddy loaned me his new F250 Diesel. Don't think my 1/2 ton would have made it very far!

Thanks guys. I guess I was a bit light. Starting to look at new trucks and currently have an 08 Duramax. Love it, but was considering if I had any other options. I think I will stick with the diesel when I replace mine this summer.
