To calculate the Boat Towing Weight (BTW):
\[ BTW = GVWR - TW \]
Where:
Boat towing weight is the weight that a vehicle can tow, calculated by subtracting the trailer weight from the gross vehicle weight rating. This is crucial for ensuring that the towing vehicle can safely and effectively tow the boat and trailer without exceeding its capacity.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ BTW = 8000 - 2000 = 6000 \text{ lbs} \]
The Boat Towing Weight is 6000 lbs.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ BTW = 10000 - 2500 = 7500 \text{ lbs} \]
The Boat Towing Weight is 7500 lbs.
