hey
I've read some of the old posts on here about boat trailers and roadworthies and it seems you have to have a roadworthy done if you are buying a boat with a combined weight over that 750kg mark. I think the trailer label has 1040 kg on it (it's a 5m stessl cc with a welded floor and a solid steel trailer with a 60 suzi. Would that 1040 be the tare?). The trailer is oldish but solid but has no brakes as old mate took them off. Is it his job as seller to get the roadworthy, my job as the buyer or is it something that has to be worked out between buyer and seller. I assume I just refuse to buy it unless it has a roadworthy? Any advice?
