Isn't a good deal of that weight variation in fiberglass hulls?
Funny you should mention that.

I went/am going through this with Ranger right now.

Apparently weights can vary a lot.


If I recall correctly as near as you can figure your hull is something
like 800 pounds over Ranger's advertised nominal.

Still haven't figured that out?


Nope.


My buddy's offshore raceboat a few years ago, came in 600# overweight.
Builder told him . . . Tough. You own it. Not competitoive, but you own
it.
