Good point Ct,

I don't know for sure but I'm guessing this boat weighs close to 500 empty. No kidding, it is damn difficult for 3 grown men to move this beast across the ground. You can forget about trying to hand pull it up any kind of slope, not gonna happen. I do have backs on the seats and some minor storage, life-jackets mainly, and my two buddies are probably a combined weight of 400, so yes that is alot of damn weight to rowed around. Guess I need to find a lighter boat and skinnier buddies, lol. Thanks again.
