for a box trailer with the axle across the centre of the box, you would not be allowed anything hanging over the rear. That's why you typically need an extending draw bar with a load carrying point further forward to give enough rear overhang distance behind the axle to be legal. or moving the axle...

Used to assist in building clinker hulls, our gunwales were a little heavier than yours of course. One thing we did stick on the outside of the gunwales was a chafing rail so as to not damage the hull when the boat was up against objects like wharves etc. Great job Cheater.

They said it would cost $600 which I just laughed. I know that a newly build trailer the extenions would...
