I always ask the travel lift operator what the weight is that he reads on the scales. The three different places where I have hauled since I owned this boat are pretty consistent. They can even tell you the weight that each sling carries. No surprise that it is significantly above the designed weight! I think the designed weight is 27,000 lbs, the actual weight with all the stuff that I carry, plus full tanks, is close to 35,000 lbs.
