Well, a steel trailer for a 17' boat will clock in at 500 lbs. An aluminum would probably come in around 300 lbs. The hull will definately be over 1000 lbs, and possibly up to 2000lbs. If it is a simple bowrider, I would say a good estimate WITHOUT a motor would be between 1500 and 1800 lbs.
That is trailer weight and tongue weight. Trailer weight is the total weight of the item you're towing. It's called trailer weight regardless of what it actually is. A 2000lb boat on an 800lb boat trailer is still 2800lb of trailer weight.Tongue weight is how much weight is pushing down on your hitch.our best bet is to go to a business that sells and installs hitches and or trailers. Tell them what you want to tow and ask them what kind of a hitch you'll need. A company that services holiday trailers and RV's would be a good place to start. The higher the hitch class, the more capacity it has and the bulkier it is.
