1.8 tonne. 1.9 with the missus and her handbag.

Van De Stadt 34 at 5.4 tonnes plus whatever minimum is needed.

, 17 foot of ply couldn't weigh much more than 170kg, the steel keel's gotta be 120kgs alone. (Gees its a small boat)

I believe about 3-3.5 tones, heavy little 27ft'er.....but not as heavy as Donks sail master

Northshore 27

2200kg

S&S34. Fuelled and watered probably 6.5 tonnes. As designed about 6 tonnes. 2.5 tonnes of lead in the keel

Currawong 30 4205 Kilos, half of that is lead.

26 foot @ 840 kg

23 feet , book says 2 tonnes empty, plus equipment and including trailer 3 tonnes.
I do no sail with the trailer, always stay on land.

Whats the green tarp on the foredeck? Is that for catching rainwater?

No, it's for shade and breeze for v berth.

Hey this is a nice yacht!

I read on your blog you say that they don't make boats like they used to because of the cost.

I agree with you. I am looking at a similar yacht that was made in 1969. It looks a bit messy, but I suspect that it was really well made and could possibly be very restorable. I am still looking into it though.

I think it's all too easy to go and get yet another 28-30 footer (a floating plastic duck), playing it safe, just like everyone else is doing. I think it's good to get your hands dirty and restore the old boats (if possible) and live a dream, instead of just trying to buy a yacht to fit in with what everyone else thinks you should be doing. That's just my 2 cents.

361 Oceanis Beneteau 6.3 tonne new, wifes things add another 1.5 tonne

Sweet looking yacht, what is it?

Are you sure on that mate?? Designed displacement according to the "Adams Yacht Design" book is 6.15 tonnes.

She is beautiful though. Does her name mean you are not allowed to play any John Lee Hooker or Muddy Waters music?? That would be a shame.
