Boostjunkie,
Check your registration card.If it has 5000 lbs. on it you have to have a weighted tag to cover truck,passengers,gear,boat and trailer,etc. You are right .This will stay the same.If anything changes in the law it will be the width and times that you can pull an overwide trailer.I'm like Berto,I had to bump my tag on my truck up to cover anything I pull.I just incresed it to the maximum my truck can pull to be on the safe side.Its nothing new.They just starting enforcing the laws.Hopefully the laws will be changed so the wide boats can be towed at night and holidays.

It gets even worse, Bigbird; trailers carying weights of 4000 lbs or more also have to get annual safety inspections.
fridaysoff, I called the DOT and was told that my truck with 5000 lbs on the registration was good for up to 9000 lbs total with trailer as is. No weighted plates are necessary up to 9000 lbs. The man championing the first bill to correct our crappy boat trailer laws got thrashed in some ugly in-fighting and on the news, including allogations of special interest because he owns a marina. So the bill being forwarded by another member is watered down and as fridaysoff says, only addresses the limitations on wide loads on nights, Sundays and holidays.
