What is the maximum length of boat that can be trailered without
running into constant parking and turning hassles at ramps? Forget
weight and assume it is a fairly light boat.


Personally, length is less a problem than width and weight. Total length
of our '66 Pontiac, trailor and 21' boat was about 50'. Didn't have
trouble at any ramp, though I had to unhook the trailor to turn around
once.

Look and plan ahead at critical points and you'll be fine.
