How do you feel about loading this monster up and trailing it with a T5. 24 boats & 2 Ribs!  ------------- http://www.edgeactionsports.co.uk/collections/soundcast-portable-weatherproof" rel="nofollow - Soundcast Weatherproof Speakers |

| How can that be legal? Surely the weight of 2 RIBs and the trailer itself is more than that little van?! |

Don't you need a 'C1' class of vehicle to be legal for that length of trailer? That is 3500kg+. http://www.ntta.co.uk/law/law/dimensions.aspx

Can see it now - truly insane. Used to think 2 boats behind and one on the roof of a Lada Riva was daft, but not since you posted that.

wouldn't be legal in the UK on a length basis you are allowed up to 3.5 tonnes on overrun brakes in the =- assuming the towing vehicle has a 3.5 tonne towing capacity - which is mainly the large 4*4s and a few Sprinters / ivecos |

| With a rib either side of the axle I am surprised it hasn't folded in half! |
