help with size/weight

[PB]

Dan that boat is a bit a-typical weight wise though. Extra beam and hull plates way beyond survey requirements and then the heavy duty steel trailer. Basically an exercise in how heavy we could design and build at 6.5m mono rig. What did the elite 700 weigh on its Ali trailer?

It was 2.8 tonne dry, No fuel or gear. so add 350L fuel and probably the same in gear when all said and done. I really think a true 7.5m plate boat should be over the magic 3.5 tonne fully loaded but as you say Chris if you are aware of the weight it needs to be once finished and loaded it is possible.

From memory this one is approx 3400kg on Ali trailer with full tanks and survey safety gear but nothing else.
