Curious what a rigged Cutwater 28 and trailer weigh.
The Factory spec for dry weight 8,000 lbs appears to be well under what they actually weigh.
Maybe dry weight spec is just hull without engine and accessories?
In California any trailer (non travel trailer) with GVWR of 10,001lbs or more requires a commercial class A with restricted 88 drivers license.
I was also suprised to learn my 2008 Dodge 1 ton 4x4, diesel GCWR is only 21k pounds because of 3.73 axle.
So my true towing capacity is closer to trailer with GVWR 12,000 lbs or less.
Are these boats shipping on 15k trailers?
Thanks
