Didn't realize that the old boat was only 240 lbs You must have got 2
footitis and moved all the way up to 16 feets. Lessee 850 lbs for the
boat. 200 lbs for the engine. 500 lbs for the trlr. 200 lbs of gear
and batteries and you are a tad overloaded. It's not a matter of the
engine pulling it. But , CAN YOU STOP on a moderate downgrade with the
car loaded up with passengers and more gear. I think John already
cautioned you about that.
The engine may pull it but the transmission won't like it. You already
covered the safety issue.
