[QUOTE="Allen, post: 300106, member: 389"] On the weight differential between glass and aluminum, I was curious. So a 189 Tyee GL weighs 2500 lbs (sans everything you would put on the hull), and an 1875 Tyee aluminum hull is listed at 1760 lbs for maybe a couple inches of less boat. The 208 Tyee GL is listed at 2650 lbs, whereas the 2075 Tyee comes in at 2000 lbs. I'd have to think the 500-800 lb difference is noticeable in both ride and trailering. What does surprise me is how little the difference in weight for a given length of boat in the same series. Only an extra 150 lbs for two extra feet of hull in the glass boats and 240 lbs for an extra 2 ft of aluminum. [/QUOTE]
