How to Measure a Boat Combo Trailer
Boat combo trailers include a section for one or two personal watercrafts and an additional area to carry a boat. Some models place the boat on the front and others place it on the back. Most boat combo trailers also include a storage box on the front for life vests or additional cans of fuel. This design allows the use of only one towing vehicle to trailer all the items to the lake for water sports.
