9.12 Trash Disposal
The discharge of plastic trash or trash mixed with plastic
is illegal anywhere in the marine environment. U.S.
Coast Guard regulations also restrict the dumping of
other forms of garbage. Regional, State, and local
restrictions on garbage discharges also may apply.
Responsible boaters store refuse in bags and dispose of
it properly on shore. You should make sure your
passengers are aware of the local waste laws and the
trash management procedure on your boat. Refer to the
placard mounted on your boat for more specific
information regarding solid waste disposal.
9.13 Trailering Your Boat
If you trailer your boat, make sure your tow vehicle is
capable of towing the weight of the trailer, boat and
equipment and the weight of the passengers and
equipment inside the vehicle. This may require that the
tow vehicle be specially equipped with a larger engine,
transmission, brakes and trailer tow package.
The boat trailer is an important part of your boating
package. The trailer should be matched to your boat’s
weight and hull. Using a trailer with a capacity too low
will be unsafe on the road and cause abnormal wear. A
trailer with a capacity too high, your towing vehicle and
hitch, and to make sure you have the correct trailer for
your boat.
Note: Contact your trailer dealer to evaluate
your towing vehicle and hitch, and to
make sure you have the correct trailer for
your boat.
• Make sure the trailer is a match for your boat’s
weight and hull design. More damage can be done
to a boat by the stresses of road travel than by
normal water operation. A boat hull is designed to
be supported evenly by the water. So, when it is
transported on a trailer it should be supported
structurally as evenly across the hull as possible
allowing for even distribution of the weight of the
hull, engine(s) and equipment.
• Make sure the trailer bunks and /or rollers properly
support the hull and do not put pressure on the
lifting strakes. The rollers and bunks must be kept in
good condition to prevent scratching and gouging of
the hull.
• The capacity rating of the trailer should be greater
than the combined weight of the boat, motor, and
equipment. The gross vehicle weight rating must be
shown on the trailer. Make sure the weight of the
boat, engine, gear, and trailer is not more than the
gross vehicle weight rating.
• Make sure the boat is securely fastened on the
trailer to prevent movement between the boat and
trailer. The bow eye on the boat should be secured
with rope, chain or turnbuckle in addition to the
winch cable. Additional straps may be required
across the beam of the boat or from the transom
eyes to the trailer.
Note: Your trailer dealer will give instructions on
how to load, fasten and launch your boat.
Before Going Out On The Highway:
• T-TOP ENCLOSURE must be removed when
trailering. Canvas enclosures are not designed to
withstand the extreme wind pressure encountered
while trailering and will be damaged. Always remove
and properly store the enclosure before trailering
your boat.
• Make sure the tow BALL and TRAILER COUPLER are
the same size and bolts and nuts are tightly secured.
• The COUPLER MUST BE COMPLETELY OVER THE
BALL and the LATCHING MECHANISM LOCKED
DOWN.
• Make sure the TRAILER IS LOADED EVENLY from
front to rear as well as side to side and has the
correct weight on the hitch. Too much weight on the
hitch will cause the rear of the tow vehicle to drag
and may make steering more difficult. Too little
