Amazing...a 34-foot, twin engine boat whose dry weight is only 4000
pounds more than my 25-footer. High tech materials?




You actually stepped in it again Harry. The weight/foot of my 32 foot
boat is still far greater than your 25 footer......65 1/2 pounds/foot to
be exact.

Tee-hee. ;-)



Nice theory, but the beam is 18" wider.

OK. Taking total square foot (assuming a full beam along the entire length
of the boat) mine is still about 20% heavier/ft2.
