Has anyone actually weighed there 265 on a scale? There’s not one near me so I’ve been guesstimating. Starting to look for a new tow vehicle and trying to get a more specific #’s.
TIA,
 
No, I haven't. But you can get really, really close just by doing the math.

Take the dry weight from GW's site or your owner's manual. Add your engine weights. Then add for the gas tank sizes, batteries, gear and your trailer weight (it's listed on most titles). If you run with more stuff (ice/etc) then add that.

That will get you close enough as makes no difference. You shouldn't be getting a truck that is right at the limit, anyways, so the 3rd grade math will work for 'ya! :)
 
Assuming you are going to launch to go fishing.....My guestimate is easily over 10k. without the trailer....
Realistically, you need a 3/4 ton truck

5400 hull
1000 hardtop & canvas
1500 250 gals of gas
1200 motors
200 Batteries

9300 before gear & ice
