The boat should have a Coast Guard stamp on it, around the driver console. It will have and engine rating, and maximum weight, and curb weight. which is empty. But I would say it weighs around 3000 or more, total. Regardless, If you have a truck, invest in a class III hitch. check the diameter of the receiver on the trailer, It is either an 1'-7/8 or a 2' You'll need to check you trailer weight too. But a class III (3) and you'll be fine. You have a pretty small boat, for going out in the ocean. I have a 19 Grady White Tournament, which is also wider than yours, and I wouldn't venture out too far. I hope you have at least a 150 hp engine. I would invest in a 20' or more to do big open water.


Good luck.
