Try calling the people over at Lunar boat lifts bet they can tell you what it weighs. Then google the trailer manufacturer look up the trailer weight.

i love champion boats! my friend has a 24 foot with a 250 yamaha. i go with him alot i like the ride they have

If this boat will not work for you let me know

I have 2008 that has Suzuki DF-250. It tops out at 49mph. Cruises at 40mph at 5000rmps. It's dry and smooth. This boat is no speed demon, but will run faster and smoother than some others out there when the water gets snoty. I had deck problems on a 2000 21 Bay Champ, but I think there is no wood in the 2008. I'm not sure what year they stop putting wood. If you look at the boat and determine there are soft spots, allow approx. 4-5,000 to replace flooring. Hope this helps.

I have a 2000 Champion 21' for sale- just replaced entire back decking- was told by the fiberglass guy that the 24'Century I bought was half the boat that this Champion is- one thing for sure- more floor space in Champion -Century has more storage than I need. - Good luck- hope that helped you
