My post was accurate. At 6600 pounds, It's a lot heavier (boat and trailer) than advertised. But just about every other boat in the world is the same.

First thing after delivery in 2018 was to put our T28 on a truck scale - 6900lb with all the batteries, sails, etc. They do not get any lighter with age.

Cheers,
Alex

Did that include the captain and first mate?

No, but the presence of the captain would hardly make any difference, much less the first mate:)
