2000-2003 Cobia 25 foot Walkaround (I've seen "dry weights" of 3750 for the 2000-2001 models, and 4500 for the 2002-2003 models)
single OX66 Yamaha 250 HP engine (I've seen it at about 500 pounds)
100 gallons of fuel (620 pounds?)
Gear (8 fishing poles, one or two coolers of ice, 4 scuba tanks and scuba gear, maybe 10 gallons of water, anchor, lines, various and sundry fishing tackle, electronics, etc.) - maybe 300 pounds?
Tandem axle trailer with D rated tires and spare - either galvanized or all aluminum - this I have NO idea about
My current tow vehicle is a Ford F150 2011, 3.7L v6, 3.73 axle - supposedly max tow rating is 6400 pounds. I kind of wonder if it is enough, or if I would encounter problems at the ramp or on the highway. Most of our trips are under 20 miles in Florida, though we occasionally would want to go down to the Keys via interstate.
Looking at a possible upgrade to a F150 Ecoboost that has anywhere from a 9700-11300 tow rating dependent upon the package.
Still wonder sometimes about 4x4 but all the ramps we go out of are very nice and well maintained, though some of the Keys ramps I've seen are pretty shoddy.
