GL: Max Legal Width for Trailering

[John & Judy Gill]

The maximum "legal" width is 8-1/2 feet with out permits for each  
state and in some cases a warning vehicle with large load signs and  
flashing yellow lights in front and back.

Note:  There are some people who will tell you that they trailer  
wider boats all the time with no problem.  Yes, and there are lots of  
people who drive faster than the posted speed limit and don't get  
caught!
