01 What makes it unique
Gulf Stream lists the Enlighten 25BH at 3,899 lb dry, a net carrying capacity of 3,601 lb and a tongue weight of 350 lb. It prints no GVWR for it.
It is 26' 7" long and 10' 4" high. Gulf Stream prints no tank capacity for it.
Among the 6 Enlighten floorplans Gulf Stream’s Enlighten model pages on gulfstreamcoach.com (no model year stated) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 3 from the lightest, in a range from 2,810 lb (Enlighten 17BH) to 5,460 lb (Enlighten 27BHS). Every figure in that comparison is Gulf Stream’s, read from the same set of model pages.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Gulf Stream’s own Enlighten model pages on gulfstreamcoach.com (no model year stated) for the Enlighten 25BH, which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.

No GVWR is printed, so nothing is checked against one. Page footnote: "Specifications are approximate and subject to change. Check the label in your unit for actual weights and capacities."

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Gulf Stream does not publish for the Enlighten 25BH
Gulf Stream prints no GVWR, tire size, grey-tank, black-tank, sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, a different model year or a dealer listing.
Read the label on the trailer
Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
