I would say your estimate of only an extra $250 in fuel is pretty low. Alos keep in mind wear and tear and such on your trailer and boat need to be factored in. If you had a tandem I would say it would be a safer bet, a single axle with a V on it going across the roads between Jersey and Florida is BEGGING for trouble. I've done the trip now several times with our travel trailer in tow, and it costs us close to $500 or more extra to tow it. I know it's an apples to oranges comparison, but it gives you an idea. We spend well over $1200 in fuel and costs for just the drive with my diesel BURb getting 11-12 MPG. I know you can rent a skiff down here for a week for $1250 on craigslist, and then you don't have to worry about losing a tire on those wonderful DC roads or the likes. If your going to make the trip, I would ssay step up to a tandem axle trailer just for the safety factor towing, and having less strain on the tires getting pummelled across all of them concrete roads.
