It will depend on the kerbweight of the merc and the mtplm of your avondale as to suitability,there are a couple of web sites that give kerbweight and towing matches,cuddles algebratis?? is one and theres one that gives power to weight ratios,another more technically gifted person will be along to do a link as i cant do them! Hope you get sorted soon.
