It's not heavy as they go. In the beefy range.
Add fuel apprx 6.3 pounds per gallon. A 500-600 lb motor. Tools, fishing junk and people that is a 5000- 5500 pound on the water.
Plus the deep vee design.
It will ride nice is seas. Deep V and heavier boats are much nicer in the 3-5 footer crowd you will eventually run thu.
You will like it. It's not crazy fast but respectable. Flared bow design knocks down and away sea too. Not sure if your model is built that way.

I am not trying to break any speed records but like you said 3000 pounds seems kind of heavy. I am relatively new to boats this size. Never had anything bigger than 18 footers. Its really going to suck towing this thing around until I can afford a slip or a marina that will let me keep it on land.
