TRAILERING
A trailer is provided as standard equipment with your Skeeter boat. If you need to obtain another trailer, choose
one that is manufactured to carry a boat of the size and weight of your Skeeter boat. Check the certification label
on the left forward side of the trailer. This label is required to show the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR),
which is the load carrying capacity of the trailer plus the trailer’s weight. Be sure that the total weight of your
boat, any cargo, and the trailer weight itself does not exceed the GVWR.
Avoid accident and injury from improper trailering.
• The trailer must be matched for the boat’s weight and hull.
• The towing vehicle must have the capacity of pulling the load. Pulling a load
that exceeds the towing capacity may cause loss of control.
• Be sure the boat is secured to the trailer and the trailer is properly hitched to
the towing vehicle before towing.
