Anyone got an idea of what a good hull weight is for a 14, bare hull?

We weighed ours today and they were 64 and 67 lbs.

I don't know what the hull weight is (and I can't weigh mine, since the boat's now glued together), but modern, light 16 hulls weigh in the 68 - 70 lb range.

This boat is an '81 and the hulls are good and solid, but they felt heavier than I would have expected for a 14, which is why I asked. Looks like maybe they are on the heavy side.
