    2000 Brochure states the Z272's dry weight at 5500lbs. That's with the stock motor, which would be a 5.7L. Add probably 200lbs for the 7.4L, as it's a heavy motor.

    Gasoline weighs 6.210 lbs/gallon, so add 776.25 lbs
    Factor in say 150lbs for all the extra weight in things like batteries, coast guard gear, etc..

    That puts your trailer weight around 1635lbs.
