Trailer Hitches
Trailer hitches are used to attach the boat trailer to your vehicle.  A basic ball mount hitch is
what you will need to pull most boats.  There are a variety of hitches and specialty ball
mounts for specific purposes, but for pulling an average boat, just make sure that the size
of the ball mount matches the size of your trailer and you should be set.  If there is any
reason why you would need some specialty ball mount or trailer hitch, your boat
manufacturer should supply that information when you purchase your boat.  If you are not
sure what you need for your hitch, just make sure to ask the sales associate and you can
even call the manufacturer.  There are some products on the market that provide some
additional safety in case the trailer detaches from the ball mount.  For an extra $50 or so,
you can buy a product that will prevent this from happening.  Do your research.  If it's in
your budget, it's worth spending the extra money for your own peace of mind when hauling
your boat on a long trip.
