Gardner et al.,
 
Sidecar is 8.7m lw long, 4.5m ww long, beam is not exact but around 3.5m i think.
 
gear is minimal, unless say to rotto ,then boogie bosard wetsuit flippers and bicycle must go along.
normal round the country i think extras for interesrt is books eg dianetics, cds eg dianetics and guitar, maybe some charts too. no lights just a torch, no life jackets and crap that i don't use. bucket. spare resin +glass, saw, piece of plywood, skateboard ( there are that many parks around country OZ. cd player am/fm radio, cooker and gas bottle, clothes, sails ropes, not much else.
water 30 -40 litres? not sure yet, depends where the next filling station wii be.

Hi Doug,

Have you ever listed and weighed (or estimated) all the stuff you take
along with you on Sidecar when you go for a "long" cruise (i.e.
multiple days)? How much water? Do you have running lights? How are
they powered? etc? I don't know if I am overdoing the provisioning
estimates for this new design. I know I will take more than you, but I
thought I could use yours as a baseline.

Also, I apologize for forgetting, but what are the dimensions of sidecar again?

Thanks,
- Gardner
