Found this very detailed 261 weight list on the Inliner's bulletin board. The poster was hoytww. You might check with him/her? if you have to know the source since they did not note it.

You can even answer 4-5-6 Chevy truck's joke about full of fluids or empty. The chart says 599 lbs without and 643 lbs with fluids.

Happy holidays to you and yours.
