Braked or Unbraked?

Unbraked

The maximum weight you are legally able to tow unbraked is 750kg Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW).

Braked

The maximum weight you are legally able to tow braked is 3500kg GVW on a 50mm ball hitch and over-run brakes.

All vehicles have different towing capacities, check your cars specification on what is the maximum weight it can tow.

The largest single axle trailer generally is 1800-1900kg GVW. There are inherent benefits with twin axle trailers, including better weight distribution and safer towing in the event of a blow-out.

Bunks

Bunks offer the best support for a boat as it spreads the load on the hull, but generally requires the boat to be floated on & off.

Rollers

Rollers contact the hull fully and make launching and recovery much easier.
