Boat and trailer weight?

Aguamenti · 01-13-2012, 10:57 PM

Sorry, this is not Winni-specific, but I don't belong to a boating forum yet. Can anyone give me an idea of what an 18' bow rider and trailer might weigh?

We are currently shopping for a new vehicle and plan to buy a boat this summer. I just want to make sure that I purchase an SUV with enough towing capacity to handle hauling the boat.

Towing needs would be from MA to NH and back at the start and end of the season, and during the summer we'd just be launching locally.

Thanks for any advice.
