Do you unplug your trailer light before putting the boat in the water?
Nope. Leave them plugged in, all the lenses are sealed.
If backing down a launch ramp, unplugging the lights and thus the reverse solenoid won't have any effect anyway if you have surge brakes which most boats do.
I was taught to unplug the lights before launching. All my dad's boats had cracked taillight covers. My dad being too cheap to replace them would actually drill holes in them so water would drain out. It's a habit that stuck. Boat only 600 yards from my mobile to launch ramp anyways.
Buddy's new BU roll bar boat as led lights that go all the way to the tounge. Like landing strip night markers.
It's a question asked on something I took for the dmv or insurance or something. The correct answer is unplug them. I never do. My right brake LEDs are also out. Hmmmmmm
Back in the olden days when the tail lights were wide open.
