Anyone know the total weight of the 2018 242 Limited boat and trailer?
 
I believe the 2018 weight is similar to my 2016. With full fuel, water and gear ours runs about 5700 lbs. I try to make long runs with fairly empty fuel tanks as it makes a noticeable difference dropping a few hundred pounds
 
weighted my SX 240 yesterday. Completely empty boat with no Bimini, no batteries, nothing inside. ready for winterization with full tank of gas.
5020 lbs.

Thanks! That means the vehicle I was using isnt large enough for the tow job. Time to buy a truck.

exactly why I decided to weight mine! I figure my summer load is at least 5500lbs with everything on it. Rules out most of SUVs out there.
