Common Concerns Answered
Is the wiring harness long enough for all trailer sizes?

How durable are the components over time in harsh marine environments?
Attwood products are engineered for marine durability. However, for extended longevity in highly corrosive environments, regular inspection and maintenance of seals and electrical connections are recommended.
