Hi Dave,

I would assume this is weighed while on the trailer since it was hooked to your vehicle?

If so, the trailer weight is being added to that as well.

Off the top of my head since I own the same boat..

boat 961 pounds
Motor 350 pounds
bow mount: 50 pounds
2 TM batt: 120 pounds
rear batt 40 pound (cranking)
23 gal gas: 120 pounds

This comes to about 1650 before loading your gear. Add on a trailer of roughly 600 pounds, and the 2360 you got is pretty close...

Unhitched could make a little difference since some of the weight is being distributed to the truck at the front end.
