Might weigh 5 or 6 hundred #'s. I have glide strips and they work great!! I have the bunks lined up just outboard of the outside bottom ribs and winch the boat on never submerging the hubs or lights, it cranks up with ease. when launching or recovering I always put the engine up and to launch I just give her a push and she slides right into the water,, sweet! Caution don't unhook your winch until you want it in the water or you may provide a chuckle for the folks at the ramp as you crank your boat off the cement!!!
