What I do when I want to know a trailers weight is go the the closest CoOp or grain elevator , easy for me to do in Kansas, and pull my trailer with boat / gear onto the scale. Some will show the reading through a window so you can do this after hours if you want. After that you can launch your boat and then re-weigh your empty truck/car and trailer do the math and you'll know what your boat + all the gear that you have on it weighs. Some truck stops will have scales that you can use also. Nine times out of ten if the truck stop or CoOp are not busy they'll be more than glad to help out. I'm sure you can find the factory boat weight and then add the gear you have to it to come up with it also, but I like to know for sure and if you put it on the scales there will be little dought. You can also find the gross boat and trailer weight this way by running your tow vehicle across the scale by itself.
