5 Gal of water = 41.7 lbs
In Response To: Watermaker... ()

In one of the earlier responses someone mentioned carrying 5 gallon jugs of water. I just Googled that and 5 gallons weights 41.7 pounds. So lifting that into and out of the dingy is a lot of work, and if carrying it very far you need to be in very good shape. After 20 trips I would be worn out.
