Here is what I posted in 2016 (not recently):

I recently weighed my boat & trailer, then weighed the trailer without the boat

With 2 batteries & charger

With some tools and jackets, not much else

With several fenders, boat hook, telescoping oar

With all interior cushions, no exterior cushions
With Lead Ballast about 150 lbs
With bimini
With Mast crutch and winch
With 5 gal gas
With one Anchor

Without any water on board

Without  motor

Without pop top enclosure
Without head or portapotti


Attached to vehicle = 3620 (on 3500 lb axle)

On Trailer detached  = 3960

Tongue = 340 (boat was 8 or 9 inches back from full forward position)


Trailer = 920 lbs with spare tire tire
Single Axle 1989 mfg by J.Q. Tex, Mishawaka IN
but it looks and acts like a Triad


1989 Rhodes22 Boat alone as weighed
3960 -920 =3040 lbs
