Hi Gordon, No I haven't weighed her but I would guess several hundred pounds more than design. The Yanmar diesel took about a hundred pounds off as it weighs less than the old Albin gas engine that the series 1 came with. The rain didn't hurt the hull paint
but ocean surge did. At times it was quite bad. Popped more than one fender. Yes, it was painted in the past. Crazing of the gelcoat has been a problem and I probably should have put down multiple coats of Primer. Truly all of the old paint on the hull and
topsides needs to come off. The bottom was barrier coated 20 years ago and although not perfect could just have new bottom paint put on.

That boat IS seriously equipped. Have you ever weighed her? just curious.
As you say, it needs paint. Was it painted before? It appears to be peeling and cracked in some of the pics. It's hard to believe the Oregon rain forest could do that!
thanks
