I noticed that the brake line between the two wheels on my trailer was busted, so I replaced it this weekend. I jacked up the front wheels that have brakes and noticed that a skeg from the boat was sitting right on the axle - right where the brake cable was cut! The skeg must have cut the brake cable last month when my tire blew out. I've seen a lot of poor engineering on boats, but this is rediculous. You can't jack up the axle without cutting the brake line! (Of course I moved it now so it's behind the axle rather than on top.)
