How is that possible, unless someone put hyd brakes one 1 axle, and electric on the other.
I'd like to see pics also.

LOL! I knew you would ask for pics. I'll dig around on the web and see what I can find. My boats in the shop for winter TLC 60 miles away at the moment. It's a triple axle Hi Tech Marine made in Fl. http://www.aluminumboattrailer.com/

Ah...got me off my lazy butt! I could only post pics in the bilge so i started a thread and posted pics here: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/b...ml#post3285665
I don't know if you can tell anything from the pics. This has me very curious as I could not find anything about having both systems on the web. All I know is my trailer does have surge brakes and I can apply my brakes with the controller in my 07 F-250!

I am wondering if it is in the master cylinder? I just tried to call HiTech but they are closed for the holidays. The guys at my boat shop also told me I would have surge brakes if my electric didn't work. Was having an issue with the pigtail loosing power to the trailer.

LOL! That's a bag of grass seed in a bucket behind the trailer! I have to be honest....I am starting to doubt myself. I also can't see any way my tailer has both. I am all but tempted to go hook up and see if my tailer does stop with the brake controller. I also wonder if perhaps the controller could apply the truck brakes?? Dang...I am certain I have tested the brakes with the controller...I am befumbled!
