A question about boat weight and displacement

I am having trouble attempting to determine the weight
of a boat, with limited information about it.
[snip]

Here is the information I have on this vessel:

Hull Material: Wood
LOA: 28'
Beam: 10'-6"
Displacement: 6,075 lbs
Draft: 2'-2"

With a beam of 10' 6" won't you will be towing an oversize
load which will require a special permit and special
arrangments each time that you tow this boat only during
daylight hours?

This is something I had not considered...

Exactly where to I have to go to find out what the requirements
for trailering are? I appreciate your having brought this up, and
I would also like to see you address the questions I originally
raised. How do you determine the actual WEIGHT of the vessel,
without being there to weigh it?
