GL: Max Legal Width for Trailering

[fred]

Peter,

When I bought my American Tug, it traveled by truck across the
country.  It was all pretty much no problem, until it reached the border of
Connecticut.  That state requires a police escort for trailers that size.  In
fact, it sat at the border for 4-5 days until the state police got around to
assigning an escort car.

It varies by state with radically different
requrements on oversize loads.

Hi All, We were watching the discussion regarding trailerable boats and
were
wondering if anyone knew exactly what the width restrictions are for
trailering a boat legally on the roads/highway.  Does if vary by state?
Thanks for your help. Best Peter & Linda :-)
