Weight of your sonics?
Related to the previous thread. I have a 2004 31 SS Sonic and have weighed it with full fuel, 5 gallons of water, plus gear ( tool kit, extra oil, lube, cold beer. My extras include TV/DVD, refrig, head, GPS, A/C and 2 Leggs Over Easy!
I was a bit surprised when it weighed in at $8,500 lbs? Anyone weigh their Sonic lately? I'm sure this is part of the reason besides the design why it handles so well in rough water.

Re: Weight of your sonics?
From what I was told by Bruce at Sonic last year was that the 31 pre F/X boats were listed at 7000 lbs. dry but they were actually much heaver. He said the newer boats would be around that 7000 lbs. or a little lighter, You add a 1000 lbs. of fuel and 500 lbs. misc. you have 8500.
