Wow some mixed thoughts here already...
Thanks gentlemen, for your replies.

My appologies...I should have included the rest of my fellow members as well, as I welcome all opinions.
I had my trailer pegged at about 1000#. There's not much to it but I could be way off too if your trailer weighs 2300#. There was another 7000# trailer at the auction that I liked because it had forward bunks and an additional cross member but I figured I would be way over in weight, because of the extra bunks.

I did the math in my head starting with the dry weight in the specs but also added 500# for any moisture that wood and foam may have absorbed over time. Added the engine and drive weight. I removed everything from the boat, for the trip..anchors, batteries, line, tools, etc and the tank has about 20-25 gals in it, so I didnt really add too much extra for gear. I came to the conclusion of around 5500# but think the boat is heavier...Maybe I have some of those pig weights in mine
(No disrespect Ken, I welcome the pig weights. The more in the bow of this boat, the better).

Yours weighs about what I figured... maybe a little less. I like to hear that but I wonder how much of a difference a new transom makes or stringers and whatever other restoration you did. Nothing has been done to ours. It has some foam in it, at the bow, under the forward berth hatch, and some between the transom and liner. It seems pretty dry to me but who knows whats under... Sorry to hear that you are selling yours..there will be a day(at least one), where you will miss her when she's gone.
Thanks again fellas
