Allow for the extra weight when slowing or stopping. It's going to take a longer distance to stop, so your following distance should be extended more than the one car length per 10 miles per hour. Also allow extra time to get moving (no jack rabbit starts) and allow enough distance when cornering.
When towing a trailered boat, ensure that the trailer is properly hitched to the vehicle and that all safety chains are securely attached. Check that the trailer lights are functioning, including brake and turn signals, to ensure visibility to other drivers. Additionally, verify that the boat is securely tied down and balanced on the trailer, and always adjust your driving speed to account for the added weight and length. Finally, be aware of your surroundings, especially when making turns or changing lanes.
Make sure the boat is secured to the trailer and that all lights are working. Do not use excessive speed, and avoid sudden stops or turns.
