Default 10 ft. beam hauling restrictions

I'm forgetting. I think that boats with an 8 ft. beam is the limit for
hauling without special permits on US interstates and state highways.
But I've also heard up to 11 ft.

which is it?

Thanks!

Most states it's 8'6" without a "wide load" permit. With "wide load"
permit, can go up to 11 feet in some states. Permit involves an annual
fee, under specified size does not require a chase or pilot car, and
may restrict towing to daylight hours only.

Check local regs.
