Weight

[Bigplumbs]

Last year was the first year I kept my 19 ft Fletcher GTS Sports Cruiser on a swinging mooring. Doing the same this year.

Last year being keen I put quite a lot of stuff on board that we did not use. We have taken those items we did not use off this year. I recon the total weight we have removed (including only filling the water tank half full) will be about 30 KG do you think this will make much difference to the performance of the boat . Or is 30Kg not significant

Depends if you are racing or not and need every last 0.1kn.. 30KG is only the equivalent of a child or half to a third of an adult.. For cruising and general running it will make no difference..
