    What Are the Weights of the 1980 and 1880?

    What are the dry weights or what are the weights with motor, trolling motor, full gas, livewell and batteries and such? What are the weights and what equipment, power poles, batteries, accessories or gas or whatever is included in the weight number?
    That is an important part of the specification and I can't find it. It has been my experience that the weight and distribution of the weight front to rear in an aluminum boat makes a lot of difference in performance. I am more interested in the 1880, but I can't find either. They are beautiful boats you are making.

    Thanks.

    Seems about right, very close to a RT188.
