, 17 foot of ply couldn't weigh much more than 170kg, the steel keel's gotta be 120kgs alone. (Gees its a small boat)
Mk 1 Top Hat, Displacement of 2,580kg [Ballast is 1,234kg]
Mind you, as I'm refitting I have everything out of her at the moment and she is riding 6" [15cm] above her water line!
S&S34. Fuelled and watered probably 6.5 tonnes. As designed about 6 tonnes. 2.5 tonnes of lead in the keel
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.
It's an Adams 35 steel hull. Sails very well and is well set-up for single handed sailing I have up graded the boats electrics and head as well as the usual painting jobs. Your yacht is very well found too.
No it means that you cannot be unhappy what ever the situation. I will re check the displacement. When I pull her out for the antifoul thanks for the weight of her mate.
Dingy Bay this weekend have a good one
