Boat trailer inspection

[RDuffey656]

Hi Understanding that the state law requires that all boat trailers over 3000 lbs gw are supposed to be inspected, I was just wondering:

does anyone actually have this done and if so who in the lakes region does it?

Thanks

Are you talking about a trailer weighing over 3,000 lbs or are the trailer capacity over 3,000 lbs?

I do know that a trailer carrying 2,000 lbs or more requires trailer brakes but it is not enforced, except in commercial use.

Trailer with a GVWR over 3000 is required to be inspected. Most automotive inspection stations can do this. Belknap tire in Laconia definitely does trailers.
