Welcome to the Forum...
It is often said that, 'no one camps in an empty trailer,' so the dry weight numbers are pretty much meaningless.
Do this: multiply the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) of the trailer by 13% (.13) This will give you a pretty good safe idea of what the trip ready tongue weight will be.
Good luck with it.
