I thought carry capacity rating of a trailer is minus the trailer weight?
Unless that was your motor weight? Which appears to be missing or feather light  - Nick

Uh, I forgot the 375 lbs for the motor.
But my trailer tag says "Max Capacity 4500 lbs GVWR", which is Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, and
for every trailer, the GVWR DOES include the weight of the trailer.
Never make that mistake!!! Max carrying or load capacity and Max GVWR are two different things.
GVWR is the weight of the load PLUS the weight of the trailer. My trailer weight is actually listed as 795 lbs, I just round it upward a bit to 900 for fudge factor.
