A 2x4 turned on its side is very strong and if you used a 2x6 on its side you could have it hanging off 3 feet and I bet you couldn't make it flex if you tried.The only thing to note, I'm not exactly sure what the laws are around having the brakes lights so many feet behind the end of the boat... meaning the boat is going to extend 2-3 ft passed your trailer brake lights.  I don't find that its an issue on mine and I haven't worried about it enough to check my local South Carolina trailer laws.</blockquote>
