16.5ft with scissor trailer --- weight?

[bobbo268]

Can you give me an estimate on towing weight for 16.5 pontoon (two toons) with 40hp merc and scissor trailer (meant for 18ft boat). wet or dry, just looking for basic weight. I'm guessing about 1350 empty, 1550 w/motor, and 2550 with trailer?? That about right?

If you get us the year and brand of boat,year of the motor we may be able to find the exact boat/motor weight.
Your weights are reasonable but a trailer could b as little about 600 lbs and the boat about 1050
depending on the year and design 200 lb for the motor is reasonable
