Boat Weight General Forum Forums

If you have weighed your boat pulling it in and out of the water let us know what it was.

here are a couple weights pulled from the other forums.

1.
While Eriu was being hauled in Trinidad, two years ago, I asked the hoist operator the weight - he replied "9 tuns, mon". In Trinidad this measurement could be Tonnes, tons or the original tuns (oak casks), but I took it as tonnes. Eriu is not particularly full on the usual cruising junk, so 9 tonnes should be a safe approximation for your trailer. I doubt if you plan to shave the margins too tight.
