Cutwater 30 weight

[Connerkip]

Hi Andrew,

Is there any reference sheet showing the basis of the 10,200 lb dry weight and weights for the various options? I weighed my boat and came up with 13,500 lbs and was a little surprised.

Thanks, Kip

Hello Kip,

You could search the technical documents online for every option you have like generators, air conditioning etc... But that would be the only way. By the time you add fuel alone you would add around 1200 lbs.

Thank you,

I'll see what I can find. I was hoping your engineers had that all down.

Please wold you let me know what is and is not included in the "dry weight". All standard features? Liquids in engine, etc.? At least I'll know whether to look these up.

Dry weight includes the standard items included with the boat figured in without any fluids. Add the options you have and add the capacities of the tanks and you will come close to the number you are seeing. If you are seeking the weight for building a trailer, weigh your boat to be exact (like it sounds you have) and make sure they build it to the specs you choose. If you are seeking it for a boat lift, same thing.

Thank you,

Generator weighs about 400 lbs. Air units are about 150lbs combined. Your total fluid capacity is around 300 gallons between water, waste and fuel. Doing a round figure that's about 2400 lbs. 10,200 + 2950 = 13,150 lbs. Not far off from what you are seeing and that is no gear included and other optional items. Hopefully this takes your concern away.

Thank you,

Thanks Andrew.

At time of weighing my black water had been pumped, fresh water was half and fuel was 130 gallons, so roughly I had 170 gallons or 1360 lbs. adding this to the 10,200 dry weight, plus the gen and a/c, I get 12,100 lbs. So I'm still looking for approx. 1400 lbs

Anchor, chain, etc. would be approx. 100
Solar, maybe 100
Auto pilot 50?
Radar 75?
Swim platform rails 50?
Aft steering 50?
Bimini 50?
Ice maker 50?

Now I think I'm getting down to the minutia, unless I'm missing something. Leaves me looking for 900 lbs personal gear (seems like a lot), lines, etc. So yes, the weight does surprisingly add up quickly.
