I don't have numbers to prove it, but when I ran the 13.7x17.5 stock I got better "mileage" empty, horrible when loaded down. Vice versa to some degree with the 1847. Don't do many big long empty runs though.

Same at the Hagg we drive apx 1 minute to the middle of the lake, fill ballast and its boarding time LOL.

Longest place we go to drive is maybe 10 minutes and that's at Green Peter to get to the smooth arm off the camping site ramp.
