Default weight of an Eberle trailer

Just wondering if anyone has a good estimate on the empty weight of an Eberle clamshell trailer (Labelle).

Hello Ray,

if it is an original Eberle trailer, there should be a stainless steel
tag somewhere on the frame calling out the empty and max gross weight
in kg. Multiply by 2.2 to get lbs.

Max wt for the axle is 1000kg or 2200 lbs, as I recall my old Standard
Cirrus weighed about 500 lbs empty. That trailer should be about 1200
lbs. without gear with spare tire.
