Narrative:
After landing, we were informed by dispatch that sea had loaded 4300 pounds of freight that was not accounted for on the weight manifest, thus putting us overweight for takeoff from sea, and landing in ZZZ. We had no idea of the problem until after landing, and then made the required entry in the aircraft logbook.
