More Cons.

Trailer hitch expence.
Extra spare wheel.
Greasing wheel bearings.
Running lights--brake lights hookup & matainence.
Time and expence for license plate.
Boat riding low to the road will get hit by flying rocks and tar.
Harder to drive in trafic and park and backing up. Just more worry.
Probably slower speeds on the highway. TRUCKS AND TRAILERS KEEP IN THE RIGHT LANE.
