Mike Miller (or anyone knowing)...

What is the combined weight of a Getaway + Trailer???
...I have VW Vanagon...

The spec's show 390 pounds for the Getaway,
but I can't find any weights for the trailers.

Thanks in advance!!

The galvanized trailers we sell weigh in at just under 300 lbs.

Yeah, you should be good to go as long as you have a trailer hitch. :lol:

I pulled a Hobie 17 all over the place using a woefully underpowered, 4-cylinder Mustang. As long as you don't load 1000 lbs of camping gear and coolers on the trailer :wink:

, pretty much anything with 4-wheels and a motor can pull a Hobie.
