Trailer/Trailering
Hitch
If you do not already have a trailer hitch installed on your vehicle,
go to a reputable installer to have the proper size hitch installed.
Always use a hitch rated with the appropriate capacity to match the
trailer and boat’s gross weight.
Wiring
The trailer requires wiring from your vehicle to the trailer lights.
This can usually be done by the hitch company.
Security
There are several locking devices available at marine supply stores
to aid in securing your boat whether or not it is attached to your
vehicle.
Storage
Loss of control can cause death or
serious injury. DO NOT attempt to tow more than one
trailer at a time behind your vehicle. Attempting to tow
an additional trailer will adversely affect the trailer
tongue weight.
!
DO NOT use a bumper mounted hitch on
your vehicle. Use a hitch that is attached to the frame of
your vehicle only. DO NOT compromise your equipment,
your safety or the safety of others.
