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.Most boats of this size use 85-120hp motors, which are normally around 300-400 lbs.n aluminum would probably come in around 300 lbs.

What is TBN? TBN is known as the Total Base Number, this is a measured level of Base Reserve built into the additive package, known as reserve alkalinity. Reserve alkalinity is measured in milligrams of potassium hydroxide per gram (Reported as mg KOH/g) it is designed to neutralize harmful acids that are produced during the engine combustion process.
Biofouling on the hull of a boat. Tributyltin (TBT) is an umbrella term for a class of organotin compounds which contain the (C 4 H 9) 3 Sn group, with a prominent example being tributyltin oxide.For 40 years TBT was used as a biocide in anti-fouling paint, commonly known as bottom paint, which was applied to the hulls of ocean going vessles.ven with its ban, TBT presents a danger to the environment. One of the most problematic aspects of TBT is its accumulation in sediments and its long half life of about 2 years. TBT often bonds to suspended material and sediments to the bottom, where it can remain and be released for up to 30 years.
