Towing a 24ft boat from Richmond, VA to Baltimore?
hello all
i have this 24ft boat on a trailer that I need to get to Baltimore. Where and what truck do I need to rent in order to do this operation? Is it difficult to drive this thing?
Any particular licences or driving permits that i may need???
thank you
You didn’t say what kind of boat. The width is OK up to 102″. The loaded height is OK up to 13’6″. Even if it’s a fairly heavy 24′ inboard it should be less than 10,000 lbs. Any 3/4 ton p-up is rated at that towing capacity. 1/2 tons are not. A one ton would give you extra stability if desired, but the 3/4 is already a little extra. You do not need any special permits or license to do that move. I do suggest you stay away from rush hour traffic and take the Key bridge instead of the Harbor or Fort McHenry tunnel through Baltimore if your destination takes you that way. Chances are that’ll take you closer to where you’re going anyway, the water. Be extra careful that the trailer doesn’t start swaying, if it starts, back out of it and keep it below that speed regardless. This is where most inexperienced drivers have accidents and/or lose their loads. I would also consider taking Hwy. 301 vs. the interstate, not advising you to take it, just consider what the trade offs might be for you. It avoids Washington and most of Baltimore. Also takes you towards the water like the Key bridge. Stay in the right hand lane but do not run on the ridge at the edge. Don’t jerk back reflexively if/when you hit the ridge just continue over it and bring it back under control. Get familiar with the right side clearance and how much room it takes to turn. Trip about 155 miles – 3 hrs. Good luck.
One more thing critical, if we don’t get back: make sure all the tires are good and up to pressure. Many inexperienced haulers make the mistake of running with one low/flat tire (I presume it’s a two axle trailer) because they can’t see that it’s low. If the other tire on that side goes flat you’re shut down right then and wherever there happens to be. BTW: I just saw a 24′ inboard that weighed 9,000 lbs.,12’6″ loaded height, and 96″(8′) wide. The pick-up you get must have an elec. trailer brake controller. If you’re going to rent it from – U-Haul, Penske, Ryder, etc. I’m sure they will take care of that.
