This boat is more heavy than i thought, i towed it with my little Suzuki V6
and it had one hell of a hard time.
The Westy is a fine vehicle but not suited for such weight. The trany would
take quite a beating. I think the boat + trailer must be over 2200 pounds.

Now I need to buy me a Jeep Cherokee with a 6 inline. Men, that will be my
first US made car.

As for me and my women staing in the boat for a whole week... i don't know
:-) I'm not sure about not getting out of the boat for more than a day or 2.
Let's wait and see, maybe I'll feel very good.

Cheers, Ben
