I happened to be getting the boat out of storage and then stopping by the grain elevator to pick up some fertilizer last week, when I noticed their scale was empty, so I dropped the trailer to get the combo weighed. Manufacturer specs say the boat ways 4,600 LBS, tandem steel loadmaster trailer. Before storing I pulled the drive and the battery, and topped off the 80 gallon tank. Total weight 7,180 LBS. I was a little surprised since it is 28', BBC single. I can not count the number of threads that I have seen about Will vehicle “X” pull boat “Y”? and have always wondered what the actual weight of my own boat was and thought I would share it. Does anybody have any scale numbers for their boats? I would like to see something in the 32’-38’ range. (P.S. Scale cost $5.00)

my twin sbc 29 Beek wieghs 9500 on the tandem steel trailer with 1/2 tank of fuel and all our chit for the weekend.......Fountain manual says the boat wieghs 5800 or something like that.......trailer is suppused to wiegh about 1200.......doug

.38 special with 1/2 tank fuel, all toys and coolers on a 45' aluminum triple axle trailer: 1500 tounge. 13600lbs total:

(old boat) 1999 Sonic 26' Prowler fully loaded; almost full tank (90 of 102 gallons), gear, anchor, tools, cockpit cover & full boat cover, spare tire; all on tandem axle aluminum Rocket trailer: 7280 lbs.
Dry weight of boat: 5050 lbs.

Fuel is 6 lbs. per gallon.
Water in your holding tanks and fresh water tanks 8 lbs. per gallon.

THEN we add subwoofers, extra batteries, amplifiers, sea strainers, mufflers... the list goes on.

I would say that at least 50% of the community has no idea how quickly and heavy everything adds up when towing; not to mention what GCWR, GAWR, weight distributing vs. weight carrying hitch; axle, wheel, and tire weight ratings; etc. etc.

Thanks, I hear a lot of estimates and seems most are low. I am still surprised at the weight the trailer and the gear add to the total.

Formula said my F402sr1 is 10500 dry. Was told it's around 13500 with no extras Truck is 11020lbs with 1/2 tank fuel and no extras. I will be weighing the trailer and boat by this fall.
