i always guesstimated but was never really sure, so i had the opportunity to weigh everything, Im going to try and weigh the bare boat without the battery and helm, so i will have a pretty close weight to what this boat actually weighs naked, and then after its back together, it will be interesting to compare the 2 seperate weights and than a total weight I dont remember ever seeing anyone doing this before, Im going to set up a strap system at my dock so i will be able to weigh anyones boat if there interested in knowing what they have

Priceless input .........
thanks Dirk ..........

i had to make an adjustment the back seat weighed in at 75lbs not 135lbs

so my guess in total running weight no driver 30 gal of fuel hanging will be 1800lbs ish, every 100lbs is good for 1mph i should be going like 200:rolleyes:

one thing im will say when the boat go's back together it will be totally different from when i got it, the only thing that stayed is the guages, i removed every wire hose connecters etc..... I should have done this from day one but Im thick,
