Drop the tyre pressures on your vehicle and boat trailer. I ran 22psi on my trailer with same size boat as yours. 25psi on the cruiser.

Id be taking more spare fuel if i was you.....?
Especially if you have a slow day & go exploring.
Its easy around there to do some miles and not a heap of boats available if you get in trouble.
I had to tow a guy into essington the other week who ran out of juice, i wasnt impressed.
