And the way I figure it if I need more boat I will cut it and add 14 feet to the mid section of the 280 so I can end up with a real 38' !!

Should end up right around your weight I figure!!

So if I was to make an educated guess at the weight of the boat and trailer, full tank of fuel and loaded with gear for the weekend it would be in the neighbourhood of 13000 lbs??
Sound right?

I would say that sounds about right......

Make sure you add enough to make it a true 38
