If you had any brains you'd realize how hard salt water can be on

boat trailer brakes.



That doesn't change the law.

Don lives in Canada.



And when I tow to Canada, I see that they are good at enforcing their

trailer laws. Coming off the ferry on Salt Spring Island, they had a check

point to check for valid registration and if trailers have safety chains

and brakes as required.



You miss the point, though. Our laws (that were posted by state) are

different from theirs.



Theirs are tougher. Don May need brakes under Canadian laws.



I take it you didn't read his post about the laws in his province, eh?



An 18' boat and trailer probably exceed 1500# which is the cut off for

brakes in Calif. Except here they do not include the boat. Stupid

reasoning.



Again, we are talking about laws in Don's province, so this is

irrelevant.



All places seem to have similar laws.

Is his province. What does his boat, trailer and load in boat weigh? 3960#

in Nova Scotia - brakes required. Go over to Prince Edward Island, and it

is only 3300#.

I hate to be drawn into this foolishness because it only adds fodder to
the likes of Hankie, etc.
My rig weighs 1920 lbs.
I am legal to trailer without brakes.

Is that boat and trailer, or just boat or trailer?
