I'm also thinking of running my Wide load banner locally not to get popped and keep em happy here, and going down I-95 I think I should be OK

My boat is 9'1" beam and has been too and from FL from MD with no permits hell not even a tag on trailer one trip.

No problems at all.

Every state has max width reg's most are 8' 6" 102" wide and most states will allow a non CDL driver to run around the clock under a certain width. Most state's allow it if you they do not reguire and escort.

Just build one bunk higher then the other to offset width...
