Thomas: is that 1600# boat and #200 confirmed on a scale? On Mon, May 5, 2014 at 11:56 AM, Tom Jenkins <tjenk@gte.net> wrote:
Alec,
I weighed my 2004 twice and got 3000 pounds +/- 50 depending on the volume of gas and water, and whether a motor was on board. This is basically cruising weight. I have four opening bronze ports which raises the weight a few pounds above standard, and a furling headsail. Most people would use a class II hitch for safety margin and because cars equipted with factory class I hitches might not like the tongue weight of 300+ pounds.

Does anyone have a total weight, including trailer, sails, etc. for towing consideration for the M17? Anyone tow with a class one hitch? Class II? -Alec
