Of course what the hull was made out of, wood vs aluminum and the fittings would add or subtact from that weight.
Hard to determine. Sailboats all carry ballast, and depending on the type of hull and keel, it will differ. The best bet is to look on YACHWORLD.net and see what the average vessel of that size weighs. Then add about 5000 pounds, or more. When you lift a sailboat, you're also going to be lifting the fuel and water in it's tanks, and all the extra gear the owner has stored on board. On a 60 foot boat, that could be a LOT!

sailinglover is closer to the answer than the other guy..now, you have a lot of fudge factors..how much fuel and water aboard; is the boat maxed out for short day racing. like the America's Cup boats?
