Subject: Trailering Weight and Tow Vehicle
Info: (18228 views) Posted: Wednesday 4-23-14 02:08:03 PM
You should be good. I know "Dan the man" towed his e27 back from Santa Barbara several times with his V6 Nissan pickup.

All up the e27 weighs 2450. Trailer adds maybe 1000lbs. You shouldn't have more than 500lbs worth of gear on her I would hope. This still gives you a 100lbs to spare. Just take it slow and you will be fine.

Let us know which boat you are looking at/or get.

Welcome to the class!

Cheers, Jason

:: it would be an expensive waste to have to get a tow
:: vehicle too.
