Then if over the 102" you can pay the $500 yearly fee.......or take your chances, violate the law, and hope to not get caught more than 3 times ($140 each) and you would still be under the $500. Just the cost of doing business idea right? Kinda like the other group of fishermen you seem to always be getting on for "violations". |
"the ultimate trailerable boat"
Time for a new slogan? That delete thread button looking good? |
If the judge is 8'10" that would be fine with me. I could always use an extra 4":D. On my 22 wa Angler, it gets pretty tight between the seats when you go below to get rods or tackle.
If I owned a Judge 27 and it was 4" over the max trailerable limit; I'd just have to chance it and trailer it without permit. I'd be a real outlaw in the state of Maryland:eek:. If I had a Judge, I might even go so far as to put out 7 rods in the spring and leave my NOAA card at home:rolleyes:. Just got back from Christmas service, feeling all warm and fuzzy; so I would probably keep my NOAA card with me. Merry Christmas to everyone, I hope you get whatever was on your wish list. My daughter and son in law are in Japan this Christmas, so we skyped with them for about an hour. I hope your family is close and your holidays are blessed. 5th (Marty) |

One being liability. Insurance companies can wiggle out of their responsibility to insure where a knowing law has been broken. Never mind that you are endangering life and limb of those who are on the same road as you are traveling. Two being. On certain roads in the state of Maryland the 4" becomes 10" over width and the fine could be thousands. Secondary roads are 8' width not 8'6". |

What a hypocrite! (This is not just directed at Marty as I'm sure quite a few others here have the same mind set.) BTW - Here is a link to the SHA Permits. If you actually read the requirements you would probably think about buying any boat over 102" to keep on a trailer. http://www.sha.maryland.gov/oots/MD_...mit_manual.pdf |
I have been known to drive over the speed limit at times too.. I am a real danger on the roads. insurance cannot get out of their responsibilites because of it.
Judges are custom boats. mine has a thinner rubrail that saves ~2" off each side.;) :p Bill has just declared a big sale.. All 27 Chesapeakes ordered before the Open House will be rebated the cost of a year long tow permit ;) key word for the rebate: "Reds" :D Merry Christmas all! :) |
LOL.. According to the law:
