anyone know approx. weight...I would like to tow it with FWD
minivan...thank you
Boat - ~800-1000 lbs
Motor - ~270-290 lbs
ADD:
Weight of trailer, + gear(tanks, tackle, PFD's, everything in the boat),
+ fuel & all fluids, + 15-20% fudge factor, and then you want to stay
10-15% under tow rating or GVW(whichever comes up first) for safety's sake.
Go get it weighed at a farm store or transfer station.
