Improving the payload

The basic payload of the Pegasus GT65 Genoa is 127kg - including, as is standard these days, 2 Calor Light gas bottles, 10 litres of water in the heater and everything the caravan comes with as standard.

A Powrtouch Evolution mover weighs in at about 30kg and a 110VA battery at 28kg, leaving 69kg for pots and pans, plates, glasses, clothes, food ...

We weighed in all the stuff we carry around - after reviewing everything, discarding loads of things and buying lighter alternatives for as many things as possible.  

Crockery & glasses	4.5
Cutlery & food prep	2.6
Pots, pans, chopping boards	4.6

Leaving only 16.5kg for the rest
So we set about improving matters.  For a start, we can have a policy of emptying the water heater before towing - 10kg saved.  It is also possible to have the Maximum Technically Permissible Laden Mass uprated - though in this case only by a measly 14kg.  Nonetheless, it seemed worthwhile, if rather expensive.  I was happy to peel off the original rating sticker and add the new one, but I'm not sure why Bailey think you might want to replace the blue ovals front and rear with new ones that say "Bailey max load upgrade".

Now let's see what we can remove to improve things further...
