I thought I wouldn’t share the confirmed weight of my 2015 C30S. We trailered the boat from Door Co WI (Lk MI) to Bayfield WI (Lk Superior) over the 4th of July weekend. We stopped at a CAT scale and weighed the Boat, Trailer, and F350. To my surprise the three weighed 25,000 pounds with about 100 gallons of fuel, no water and no waste.
When we put the boat back in the water in Door Co we weighed just the F350 and it weighed 8000 pounds. So the boat and aluminum trailer weigh 17000 pounds. A little more than I expected🙁. Cutwater states the dry weight of 10,200 for the boat with out AC units or Generator. The trailer mfg said the trailer weighed 1800 pounds. We will make sure there is less fuel on the boat next time and move heavier items such as the outboard to the truck. Our goal is to try to get as close to 15500 pounds for the boat and trailer
The lesson here is weigh to confirm the weight of your rig🙂.
