Ladies and gents,

I am curious as to how much weight each of the rear ballast adds to the boat. Owners manual is in the boat at our storage facility so I’m unable to look for it. Any feedback would be appreciated for planning tomorrow.

Thank you!
 
I believe with all three tanks filled its about 1200 lbs.
 
Don't know the exact split off the top of my head. You can fill each independently. I want to say it's like 600 in the ski locker and 300 on each side.
 
I thought it was 1100lbs total - 250/250/600 - at any rate that gets you close whether or not 250 or 300
 
Correct on the 250 lbs each side in the solid tanks - port & starboard. 600 lbs in the floor locker in the bow. I recently purchased the 2019 212X and recall that 1100 lbs number. Volume in gallons - approximately 132 gallons total.
