F150 pulling near it’s max
First time poster, but not new to towing. I have a 2015 f150 eco boost, non max tow. I regularly pull near my max, but that is with being able to set the load on the trailer to perfectly distribute...

Electric brakes on boat trailers are quite rare due to corrosion and being really annoying after the boat is unloaded. My brother put some on his boat trailer but he had a tilt trailer and kept the axle dry plus put a disconnect on the brake circuit. Do you have electric over hydraulic? How do you deal with those issues? I am just curious and hope that you don't mind me asking. Also, I have had pretty good luck with surge brakes but it is hard to find an actuator for trailers over 6000lbs
They’re fully electric. It was custom built by a shop in Florida. All connectors are heat shrinked and I keep them geled up. I hose the whole trailer down after I wash the boat. No issues in the 3 years I’ve had the trailer. It’s typically put in the water on the Chesapeake, but it’s made it’s way to the inlets on the ocean 10-15 times.
