Cuddy Cabin Weight

[rsc]

I am seriously looking to buy a 1983 Stingray 19.5 feet cuddy cabin boat with a six cylinder engine. It sits on a tandem trailer that doesnt have brakes. My question is. Can anyone tell me what a set up like this might weigh? My truck has a max tow of 3500# so weight is an issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Nada Guides have a gross weight rating which should get you pretty close. I think you'll probably come in around 3200 with fuel, coolers,etc.

rsc,<br /><br />Don't even think about towing that rig with your vehicle without trailer brakes.<br /><br />If the "dry" weights add up to somewhere around 3,000, add another 1,000 for: reality, fluids, fuel, gear, etc.<br /><br />You're pushing it.

Stingray publishes data on all past models on their website. I just recently boat a 1998 22' cuddy and the weight was on the data sheet on their website.

Even with trailer brakes you should not tow that boat... it exceeds your limits. You need a bigger truck AND trailer brakes.<br /><br />Bob
