Full tank: 400 lbs
batteries and gear: 300
galv trailer: 1000 lbs

That totals 4020 lbs....battery and gear estimate could be light, ....4500 should definitely have you covered for towing capacity.
That's a pretty good average...I actually weighed my old '74 once...tipped the scale at 4700 lbs...galv trailer, fuel, 4 batteries, elec motor...can't recall if that was w/Rude 2-stroke or after added the Honda 4-strioke...+ - 70 lbs...
