ABSTRACT:
A boat trailer has a unitary fender having a base to which there is attached a light and license plate support bar. The unitary fender is attached to the trailer running gear by suitable brackets and bolts. The light support bar is pivotably attached at one end to the base near the center thereof and is releasably fastened to the base near the rear of the fender. A bracket for supporting a lamp and license plate is attached to the opposite end of the bar. Electrical wires extend from the vehicle's electrical system through the fender and bar to the lamp. The bar is fastened to the base in such a fashion that the lamp and license plate are repositionable from the rear of the trailer where the lamp and license plate are located during over-the-road travel to a position forward of the fender prior to launching a boat from the trailer. In this regard, the bar is released from the base of the fender and rotated 180.degree. so that the lamp and license plate are forward of the fender whereby the lamp and associated electrical wiring will not contact the water during launching of the boat thus avoiding dangerous electrical conditions.
