Two vessels have the same base area but ...

Two vessels have the same base area but differnent shapes. The first vessel takes twice the vloume of water that the second vessel requires to fill up to a paricular common height . Is the force exerted by water on the base of the vessel the same in the two case? If so, why do the vessels filled with water to that same height give different reading on a weighting scale ?
