Thats going to depend on many other variables on the day mainly fuel load. All the new RYR deliveries for the last few months are 'SFP' 738s which give landing and takeoff performance improvements over the standard 'NG', potentially in the region of several tonnes on short runways with no terrain in the climb out.

In general though the runway is short and narrow which will reduce crosswind limits and there is no way any 737, NG or Max can take off at anywhere near MTOW due to the length.
