New Guy with a question?

Was hoping someone here could help me? I'm needing to find out the weight and height of a 1960 Trojan 25' cabin cruiser?

Thanks to all that reply!

Which model? How's it equipped? Tanks? Dry weight or full up?

A typical 25' cruiser might range between 1.5 tons for an especially light one to more then a few tons for a wholesome putt putt. Height on the trailer, on the ground? Hardtop, convertible? On the trailer heights might range 7 to 10 feet.

Here's the ebay link;

No awards for housekeeping there. If it helps any, my 30 Trojan Sea Raider is rated at 8,100lbs dry and empty.

Don't by "sight unseen" or without paying a reliable surveyor to provide a report (unless it is that one at $600 odd - then "pot luck")
