Has any 28ZXO owners weighed their boat? I have read several different sources, and there seems to be (2) different published weights for the ZXO, one @ 6500 the other at 7200, what is accurate?

weight tag of 6500 - I have a twin setup so I'm not sure - never took to the scales but if you trailer with full fuel add approx 600 lbs for gas (90 gal tank) - would love tro know for sure, perhaps this spring I'll go past a weigh station.

Thanks daboys, it sounds like we have the same set up. In the brochure it lists the ZXO as 6500lbs. but in the owners manual it lists at 7200. Mine is in storage right now, and as soon as I get it out, I plan on hitting the scales, I'll let you knwo what I find out. The reason for concern is that I have a 3/4 ton Suburban as my tow vehicle which is rated at 9600 towing. I just bought the vehicle, and am curious as to how well it will tow the Donzi.

engine, heavy duty tow package rated at 7900. I do not tow long distance approx 40 miles twice a year - car pulls fine but you notice the weight. My trailer has brakes so that helps. I think the suburban will outpull my expidition.
