Boat Hauling Information for Your Safety and the Safety of the Community:
The Barnstable Police Department recognizes that the boat hauling season is upon us and that it can present a variety of complexities when trailering and transport of your vessel on state and local roadways. In an attempt to make it clearer for our community, we have attached two links below for the purpose of clarification when it comes to weights and measures when trailering and permitting if required. Please do not hesitate to contact the Barnstable Police Department Traffic Unit if you have any additional questions.
