Had a 1980 w/BBC power x 2 and weighed in @ 6100 light on fuel. Had a lot of plywood in the bottom and sides and a lot of glass in the laminate schedule. Also have a 33 84 w balsa core weighs in at 6700 w/2 BBC's. Great boats for the rough!Originally Posted by professor_speed
Anyone ever weigh one these to find the weight? The boat in the add looks like a single? might explain the 5800lbs weight.

I didn't realize your duramax could tow the boat that fast! If you had a triple axel trailer it would slow down much more in control!Originally Posted by sutphen 30
