Update - I very accurately weighed the bare hull and found it is 700 lbs or 200 lbs over the 1968 spec. That's approx 25 gallons of water.

Would it float if full of water?

I did a float test and the boat still sits 3 inches above the old waterline.

Still a great tender after my 80 hour total restoration.

I probably just put lipstick on a pig. Oh well, it was fun anyway.
