If anyone happens to be interested.... I drove over the scales on my way home today and here's the info...
Total Gross of boat and trailer was 3160. That's a 1997 16 classic w/ V8, battery, 15 gallons of fuel and all the other fluids plus some life jackets and ropes... Trailer is a single axle Eagle... my registration says 760 lbs... not sure if that is accurate or not... but sounds bout right...
what really surprised me is that my pickup weighed in at 5000 lbs almost (8360 gross)!!! but of course there's probably 200 lbs of junk in the bed :rolleyes: plus my 150 lb butt and a full load of fuel...
only had 300lbs of tongue weight going too with it all hooked up too (trailer axle @ 2900)
