[quote=PurdueZach]I haul with an '04 Nissan Xterra. My Hobie 16 is on a trailer with 3 different storage boxes. It has 1 12" sail tube, 1 fiberglass coffin box, and 1 tool chest on the front. That all has to weigh a lot. I've never weighed it but it is pretty heavy. I put on 12" tires on her which may help a bit with mpg but mostly saves the bearings from overheating.
Here's are some pictures of me moving to Florida this summer:

I had that thing packed full of extra stuff. There was a spare mast, 2 spare frames, extra rudder hardware, a kayak, and a bunch of other random things. Now it is much lighter, but for the move I had it packed to the brim.
I have never really checked my mpg when I was pulling. I'd rather not know because it seems to suck gas like crazy. If I had to guess, I am probably getting 11-12mpg fully loaded with my rear seats down and moving boxes packed to the ceiling.[/quote]
