nice thread... I will try to go weigh mine when Im all done... I wonder if I could setup my bathroom scale to weigh it.... only places by me charge like 5 or 10 bucks to use their scales... bathroom scale should be ok within +/- 3 pounds or so...

I might be able to ask a favor of the guys I usually go to to get my trailers weighed to get my license plate... prob will depend on if they are in a good mood...

We used a bathroom scale to wiegh the REV hulls and it was tough, cant imagine struggling with an entire ski on a little tiny scale. I am lucky enough to have accurate 6' square scales at work.

if you have a tote or a stand you could wiegh that on a bathroom scale at home to save time at the scale, then just slide the ski on the stand or tote at on the scale there and subtrack the wieght of the stand. It is crazy to see the difference it the wieght of all the ski's. Keefer's ski wieghed in lighter then any of our sj's @ 296# and its reinforced with tubbies and original foam and has simular mods to the rest of our ski's it really makes no sence but these scales ar calibrated monthly and are accurate within 2#.

my 2001 ski weighs in at 305 lbs, no fuel... reinforced.

my 1996 project ski, no motor, no footholds, no foam, no exhaust tube, no hood or nose piece, nothing, just a stripped down bare hull (heavily reinforced), not even paint, down to gelgoat... weighed in at 98 lbs.

I used a hanging scale that is used to weigh meat, and will weigh up to 500 lbs.

Funny thing is that the REV weighed 95# with no hood but with foam and exhaust and foot holds (no reinforcement) so this should put you arround 20# over the 292# of the REV, but the REV has a heavy mag pump and a heavy Odesy battery (due to total loss).

Hard to believe that the bolt ons weigh 200 pounds huh?

Prepreg or wet lay up? Fiberglass or CF? Just curious to see what it comes in at. Obviously the REV hull from WDK was not even close to what it should have been, 15# off on what should have been a 95# hull & hood combo DAMN NEAR 20% OFF.

riverrat's x-jet was 'weigh' off from what Jeff guessed too.
