Location: MN		Hey Jim,

I have obsessed over this exact question and put some calcs. together. Here's what I arrive at:

Boat Hull Weight = 1,425 lbs
Engine Weight (175 Two Stroke) = 431 lbs
Fuel Capacity = 42 gallons
Fuel Weight @ gallon = 6.3lbs = 264.60 lbs
General Gear, etc = 750 lbs
Trailer (Dual Axle ~ 5000 GVWR) = 800 lbs

Total Weight No Trailer = 2,870.60 lbs
Total Weight + Trailer = 3,670.60

If my calcs are off, hopefully someone can provide feedback.
