Mazbe I'm missing something in the manuals and not seeing it, so thought I'd ask. Can someone tell me the weight (empty/dry) of my 1991 26S and if I want to replce the springs on my single-axle trailer, the strength? I'm thinking springs rated for 1,000lbs each? Any thoughts/help would be appreciated! Kevin

I saw somewhere you boat totaly empty is 1650,,However,,you will have many more pounds added for the many thins you will have in the boat,,I think 1000lb, is a bit light,my Mac25 is 2100 empty and I have a tandum trailer from a bass boat rated at 4500 lbs,,it rides great on this,,a bit of overkill may be in order for a 26s,,considering tail swag and ect,,,I would think 3000 to 3500 tatol load would be nice,,Overloading a trailer can end in many misshaps,,,
