"Perhaps you need to re-check your weights.
Ron"
Ron and Peeps, you're correct, I didn't read my own notes, it should have been 50 gallons (not 30) for 417 lbs. (not 240).
The fresh tank is, in fact, in the rear of the trailer (the fill is about 2 1/2 feet forward the rear corner, and I can see the tube and the pump line where they go down into the tank from the inside).
The weights were obtained with a Sherline LM2000 belonging to the service mgr. at a local RV dealership that we placed under the tongue jack foot, first with the tank full, then drained. He and I both looked at the dial.
While my first water quantity and weight numbers were incorrectly posted, the illustration is still valid, eg. adding weight to the "rearend" CAN still add weight to the tongue.
