    We have a trip planned with a passenger load of about 750 lb. The items were packing along with us will be a minimum of 150 lb. That’s the big stuff I can actually weigh. The rest is odds and ends, like clothes & food, & cooking gear (for camping). I’m estimating an additional 150 lb. Do we need to worry about this or should we be ok?
