Heritage Trailer Weight?

[IFlyEM]

My dealer has a Heritage trailer on order for my 22SSRX Tritoon. Can anyone give me a close ballpark figure on what that will weigh? Trying to figure out my towing weight. Thanks!

I think 1500 lbs may be reasonable... Better let others chime in though.

The wildcard is gear. It can weigh a lot more than you think.

You should take the whole rig to a truck scale. Measure everything (truck, boat, trailer) then unhook your boat and trailer somewhere in the parking lot and weigh just the truck. Then subtract.

my steel roadking twin axel trailer for my 22' pontoon boat weight is 900 pounds, this is a well built trailer with out brakes

What are you pulling the bot with?

I use a 2004 half ton two wheel drive chevy suburban pulls ok if you do not go faster than 65mph but it is the max my half ton suv wants.

What are you pulling the bot with?

I have a 2017 Explorer Sport. Haven't had the boat delivered yet, so trying to see what I need for a towing vehicle.

the bigger the better IMO

Any 1/2 ton will handle it fine. Might be able to get away with the explorer but it would be much better with a 1/2 ton truck or suv. I pull a 25r with a tundra and armada and neither have any issues

I finally heard back from Heritage...I was told its about 1,500 lbs for the trailer. I am now looking at a 2017 Nissan Armada to replace my Explorer. With 8,500 lbs of towing capacity, that should be good. Going to go test drive one tomorrow.

My armada actually handles my 25r better than my tundra you won’t have any issues
