hello <br /><br />I have a 1988 seamaster 2288 WA cuddy by Renken with a 5.0 alpha one --I would like to find out what it weighs, can anyone out there clue me in. or atleast a good educated guess Thanks Cool It
The only way to know is to take it to a scale. Truck stop, junk yard. Look in the yellow pages or do a web search. The manufacturer can tell you the dry weight without fuel, accessories, trailer, etc.
www.nadaguides.com has it listed as:<br />Length: 21' <br /> Model Name/Description: 2288 WA <br /> Boat Type: Stern Drive Power Boat <br /> Hull Material: Fiberglass <br /> Beam: 8' <br /> Engine: 1<br />165 HP<br />Gasoline <br /> Net Weight: 2,850 <br />This is the "base" weight and your 5.0 should be fairly close to the I-6 maybe a 100 lbs differant. Additionally, you have to add in the weight of fuel, accessories and other assorted junk we all carry.<br /><br />Bob
Thanks for the help --this info will help in buying a used trailer , I want to make sure the trailer has the weight capacity I need. Thanks again this forum is always a great help!!!<br /><br />Cool It !!!
Hey Bob<br /><br />I just tried to get that same info you did on Nadaguides.com but once in site I could not figure out where to get the info. If you could point me in the right direction that would be great. I will also try to use this when I look for a trailer Thanks Cool It !!!
