I have a boat trailer I am trying to get new tags on and was curious what the weight of the trailer would be. On the tongue of the trailer the tag says class 3 gtw 5000 load at ball 750. Im needing the weight of the trailer to determine if I need to get it inspected or not. Thanks for your time.

It sounds like what you listed is the capacity for the coupler that is installed on your trailer.
The best recommendation I could make would be to find a local weigh station to get an accurate weight of your trailer.
