Hey all,

I'm considering buying a 1999 Bayliner Ciera 2655 (I know, I've been
warned about Bayliners, that's besides the point :-) )

I own a Volvo XC90 AWD SUV that is rated to tow 5000 lbs.

- When looking up the boat on www.nada.com, it said that its "net"
weight is about 5400 lbs. That's hard for me to believe... are those
weights in nada correct?

- Also, on www.nada.com, there is no ciera 2655 except for the
sunbridge model. However, the boat I'm looking for doesn't look like a
sunbridge. Is the model simply missing in nada?

- Does the net weight in www.nada.com accurate? Does it include a
trailer? What does the "net" mean in net weight... what is the "gross"
weight?

- Is it a very bad idea for me to try to tow this baby with my Volvo?

- are there other useful websites for getting towing info?

thanks for your help!
