More Questions. If I were in a ten Knot wind about how much of a heel angle would the boat have? And at 15 knots?
I talked to the owner today and we are going to look at it next weekend to see if it is as good as the pictures.
Thanks for all your help.

Unfortunately, Dennis, it's not that simple.

I'm apparently light at 6200, others have reported being a tad under 6000 and up to about 7000 with most us who have actually weighed the package scattered between . There will undoubtedly be junk onboard. Just be careful

I will be careful I am familar with towing large power boats over 5,000 lb just wanted to be sure how much I was towing. I am looking forward to seeing boat and hopefully it will be worth the trip and the money involved.

On tow vehicles, if something like a Ford F250 with load equalizing hitch is not available, check with your local van rental store and look for a 12 passenger van with a heavy duty trailer hitch. This would be the type of vehicle a church might rent to take a choir or youth group on a tour/mission trip where a trailer would be needed for carrying luggage and work gear.
