According to my Essential Guide, it weighs between 2487-2687#. That is dry weight from the factory. Add some for fuel, gear and accessories.
The title is asking for displacement, which is a different thing, the amount of water the boat will displace. You want the boat’s weight for trailering, right?

Boats are to be made of wood, otherwise, God would have grown fiberglass trees.

Thanks! yes, I actually wanted the weight for lifting the boat off the trailer to build a cradle. I made an overhead hoist and want to put an electronic winch on it to lift the boat. Just wanted to estimate the lifting capacity I needed for the winch. Sorry, mixing up terminology!

You are welcome. That's a common mistake.
