I just bought a boat from Arizona and am now titling it in Ohio. I am trying to get plates on the trailer, but Arizona's trailer titles have the full (with boat)weight on them. Ohio needs the empty weight. I don't want to go throught the hassle of launching the boat, tying it up somewhere then going to weigh the empty trailer.
Does anybody know where I can get a manufacturers slip for a 21ft Baker sport tunnel hull and trailer? The trailer looks like it is a baker as well. Is Baker still in business (looked and didn't see anything)? Does anyone have a similar boat/trailer with a slip?
Any assistance is very appreciated thanks!

Single or tandem? Tandems in that size are around 1400 lbs.

Tandem, but I need a verified weight and I can either get that through a manufacturers slip or i have to go through all of the trouble for a scale slip.

there should be a vin plate/ sticker, you should be able to contact the manufactor of the trailer and get that info.

In most states you will need a scale print out, but you can find someone with a trailer about the same weight and swap plates, get it weighed and off you go, which is a good idea, but since it is illegal I wouldn't do it!!;)
