I re-powered a '76 23 SF for the Town of Palm Beach in 1985, removing the twin Evinrude 150's to install twin 225 Mercury Black Max motors (donated by Mercury), and removing the original 100 gallon fuel tank to install a 70 gallon tank, and also installed an 18 gallon freshwater tank.
We weighed the hull with the Birdsall T-top, but minus the fuel tank at Spencer Boat yard, and the hull with T-top, Samson-post and tow-guard weighed 3003 lbs. I remember the number because it's a numerical palindrome.
