[QUOTE="Tim Murphy, post: 280159, member: 9229"] Dear Palmer, My lawn tractor is a 16 HP Simplicity hydrostatic tractor and my boat and trailer probably weigh 800 to 1000 pounds. The tractor weighs about 500 pounds before I get on it and make it weigh pretty much the same as the boat and trailer because I'm a 300 pound plus sized dude. The lawn tractor can pull the boat for as long and as far as it's gas tank will let it. Even when parked facing down the slope of my driveway the boat cannot push the tractor with the parking brake on the tractor set. You should be fine moving your boat with your 16.5 HP Murray tractor. Just try to keep it on the level so the boat cannot push you around. Regards, Tim Murphy :D [/QUOTE]
