2015 Dodge Ram 3500 Trailer Towing Chart

Curious what licensing you have to haul the big boats? Anything special in regard to state/fed to tow like that, special registration etc?

You probably should have licensing and DOT numbers for that kind of towing when doing it as a business. But the fact is you can get away with a lot with big boats and large RV's because law enforcement can't tell if it's your own stuff as you pass down the road or if you're doing it for hire. They'd have to stop you and ask for proof of ownership, and even then it could be a friend's or relative's boat. But eventually you could run into a problem in some locales.

It's good old boy network here. No issues for the local stuff.
