Hey Mike, if you get less than 8mpg towing the swimming pool gaggle you have a parachute grabbing more air than the airboat.

I towed the same airboat with a 3.73 gear and got 7.34 mpg, same route. Like I said above I get 11 towing my 35ft fifth wheel.

Not my trailer. 12 bales are ok if you keep your speed down. Make 2 sometimes 3 runs every fall to stock up for winter.

thought I'd add mine. Had some "galvalume" metal roof on the trailer for the shop in the background.
