question 17 of 60
in preparation to trailer a boat, it is recommended that you do which of the following?
a distribute gear towards the back of the boat
b tie down all loose items and equipment
c attach the chains vertically under the frame
d ensure that all lug nuts are greased

Explanation:

When trailering a boat, it's crucial to secure all loose items and equipment. This prevents them from shifting or falling during transit, which could cause damage or pose safety risks. Distributing gear towards the back (A) is incorrect as proper weight distribution (not just towards the back) is needed. Chains should be attached horizontally (not vertically as in C) for proper securing. Lug nuts should be tightened properly, not greased (D).

Answer:

B. Tie down all loose items and equipment
