Don't bet on it....

All you need is the accurate gross weight of the complete package.

Then you can decide if you want/need to fudge on the Factory Specs.

No live well, rod storage, trolling motor or fish finder,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,not for me.

But they are fun to watch. Especially when they "park it" on the beach.

The weight depends on what class and the power choice and Hull Material.

Jetsprint Boats in the Super Boat class, "which has no restriction on the size of engine".
Competitors usually take advantage of this by using big-block Chevy V8s of up to 1400 horsepower, or there is a 960hp, turbocharged (presumably Mazda-based) rotary engine, which has the advantage of being lighter and keeping all the weight low-down.

Then add the trailer weight the HHR hitch weight and any other gear.
