If you tow to OI be aware they are targeting boat trailers for inspection. If you have a boat over 4,000 lbs it has to have brakes. It doesnt matter if it is a single or double axle. They did away with the light blue cars that do inspection and merged them with the state troopers. Several single axle boat owners have been ticketed this weekend. Weigh your boat! They are also giving out tickets for people towing boats that exceed there license plate limits. A normal plate is only good to 4,000 lbs. After that you have to have weighted tags know as commercial tags. Then you have to weigh your vehicle as well as the boat. this will give you your total weight. If you drive a diesel vehicle your weight will be somewhere around 8-9000 lbs. If you boat weighs 11,000 lbs you need to have your license good to 20,000 lbs. It cost 331.00 in nc each year for this m
Don't forget the oversize limitations if you are 8'6" and that if the trailer and boat you are towing are over 10,000lbs you have to have a Class A endorsement.
