Quick Tip: How to Use Safety Chains with Your Boat Trailer

Every boat trailer is or should be equipped with safety chains – if yours isn’t, talk to your dealer right away to get this rectified.

It’s also important to know there is definitely a right way to hook up those chains to maximize their effectiveness in the event the unthinkable happens.

Hooking up your chains correctly requires just a few seconds, but it can make all the difference in the world in the unlikely event they are needed.
