fishinmajishin Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I've got a custom built 8'x14' house that I don't have wheels on yet. Was just wondering what/if any regs there are for width of a fishouse. I always thought that there were none, but I heard a rumor that they may make you license one as a regular trailer.

camtis Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I am not sure of width requirements, but I have heard that they now require houses with sleeping accomandations to be licensed as a recreational vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishinmajishin Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 Who determines sleeping quarters? I suppose anything with a permanent bunk? How about one that folds down and serves as a "bench"? I built this house a few years back and have been hauling it on a 101" trailer. Crank it on with a winch. Weighs about 1600 lbs. Actually very light for it's size. Built to last forever,wont rot/rust/and it will float! Wanted to get wheels on it this year so my father-in-law doesn't have to mess with the jacks,etc. It'll be 116" w/ wheels. Don't have to go far to the lake so I guess I'll take my chances on a midnight run w/ a follower. Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
