Re: Awesome interior.

You have to have a brake on your trailer in order to use it.

Re: Awesome interior.

Looks like an old Choo Choo Customs interior to me, or at least some custom vam manufacturer in the 80's

Re: Awesome interior.

I would not think your boat would need brakes unless it is a really BIG one. That brake control was installed because the PO was pulling something that had brakes. Just leave it there incase you do buy or use a trailer that has brakes. Pulling a big trailer you would want brakes and the brake control. Never mind. I forgot this is not your truck. I too like those seats.

Re: Awesome interior.

in ky you dont even have to have brakes on car trailer. over 10k is when the brake law kicks in. nice to have still though. pulled car without much rather have brakes. i think though what he meant the trailer has to have electric brakes on them for the controller to be used.
