Re: Guess my weight

Using our old 2007 Bayliner 175 with the 135 Merc 4-banger as reference-- it only weighed 2250, so my guess on your boat/motor combo is about an even ton; your trailer looks pretty much the same too, and with the trailer connected at the hitch even ol' weaking me could pick up the whole trailer from the back, so that can't be much... If it had electric brakes on it my old '84 Goldwing probably could've towed the Bayliner, so I'm pretty sure anything north of a Smart Car should tow yer boat okay...

Thanks for the tips.
Undecided between '13 Wrangler and '13 Escape. Both have max of 3500 lbs.
I don't tow very far,1-2 hr drives. Fairly flat terrain.

The Escape would be a better tow vehicle unless we're talking a 4 door Wrangler. 1-2 hour drives is kinda far :p 20 minutes down to the ramp, that's not far.

In iboats terms, that means that boat requires a 3/4 ton diesel, at a minimum!

Leaving us hanging here OP... Get that thing to a scale!
