01 What makes it unique
Starcraft lists the 2025 Super Lite 212FB at 4,840 lb unloaded (UVW), with a GVWR of 6,400 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 1,560 lb and a hitch weight of 480 lb. Its UVW plus its cargo capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.
It is 23' 3" long and 11' 0" high with the air conditioner, with 45 gal fresh, 29 gal grey, 29 gal black. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank uses roughly 374 lb of the cargo capacity before anything else is loaded.
Among the 7 Super Lite floorplans Starcraft lists for 2025 with a published weight, it is number 1 by unloaded weight, in a range from 4,840 lb (212FB) to 6,215 lb (252RB). Every figure in that comparison is Starcraft’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from Starcraft’s own floorplan page for the Super Lite 212FB, whose title names the model year 2025.
How the 212FB differs from the other six Super Lite floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Dry weight, 4,840 lb: lightest of seven; next is the 189RG (5,035 lb).
- GVWR, 6,400 lb: lowest of seven; next is the 189RG (6,500 lb).
- Cargo capacity as a share of GVWR, 24.4%: largest of six; next is the 189RG (22.5%).
- Tongue weight, 480 lb: lightest of seven; next is the 225CK (485 lb).
- Length, 23 ft 3 in: shortest of seven; next is the 189RG (25 ft 2 in).
- Sleeping capacity, 4: smallest of seven; next are the 189RG, 225CK and two others (6).
- Cargo capacity, 1,560 lb: second-largest of seven, between the 261BH (1,550 lb) and the 241BH (1,670 lb).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 9.9%: third-smallest of seven, between the 233ML (9.7%) and the 189RG (10.2%).
Next to the 189RG, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 212FB is 195 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 100 lb lower, has 95 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 35 lb lighter, is 1 ft 11 in shorter and sleeps two fewer; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Towing it
Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.
Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (6,400 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (960 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Starcraft does not publish for the 212FB
Starcraft’s page prints no axle count and no interior height against this floorplan, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling floorplan, 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.
05 How it compares
5,035 lb UVW and 6,500 lb GVWR, against this plan’s 4,840 lb and 6,400 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 45-gallon fresh tank is about 374 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 24% of the 212FB’s 1,560 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,186 lb (297 lb per rated berth). Across 7 Super Lite floorplans the water share runs 22% to 27%, and 5 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Super Lite 241BH at 22% and Super Lite 261BH at 24%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Super Lite 189RG, nearest on the published figures.

They match on fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
