ABSTRACT:
A recreational personal trailerable vehicle, such as a boat, is provided with a rear brake light. The boat; boat electrical harness, and trailer combination is safer for being towed in traffic. The boat includes a rear-mounted brake light, located in the stern of the boat, activated in concert with the brake lights of a motorized towing vehicle, to warn following motorists that the boat and trailer combination is slowing down. Further, the electrical cable supplying power to the rear brake light is concealed, providing an aesthetically pleasing appearance to the boat. An electrical harness is connected to a power supply on the motorized vehicle and supplies power to both the rear brake light of the boat, and a pair of spaced rear-mounted brake lights of the trailer. Optionally, the rear lights are activated by a transmitter-receiver arrangement that activates a power source electrically connected to the rear light.
