I don't want to tow anything heavy but I have a 14ft aluminum boat on a little Cox trailer. I use the boat for lake fishing all over CT. We used to tow it with my dads truck but my SDL will be more comfortable on the long rides not to mention the fuel costs will be lower.

I figure the boat probably weighs 180 pounds give or take, it is a nice aluminum boat but pretty light. The trailer is small it can't be more then 150 but probably less, and the motor is an 8hp Merc I think it weighs about 70 pounds. I would keep everything else in the trunk to prevent theft, ie the battery, gear, electric motor. I would think the boat, motor and trailer are probably about 400 pounds wet, that shouldn't bother anything on the SDL? Tounge weight is very light I can walk the whole set up into our backyard.
