Can a MG tug pull a loaded 2 place Blanik on a standard day at SL,

behind the clubs remaining pawnee?

Lambada motorglider towing
UFM 13 Rotax 912 100hp

I watched a Lambada tow an LS-3 from Boulder (elev 5300) on a hot day
and it looked about the same as the SSB 180HP Supercub. The LS-3
pilot reported the same. I can't speak to the maintainability of the
Lambada but keep in mind that the Pawnee isn't sterling in that
department either.
