Hmmmm 2.54 metres! I may be out of date but thought that UK law (towing vehicle below 3500Kg) stated a max trailer width of 7'6"(2.29M) with a permissable load overhang of 12" (0.3M) either side. Hence the motorway warning signs for loads over 9'6"...... Are your hull supports on separate/extending arms and hence possibly not classed as "trailer" but load/supports?
