I have a tandem trailer for my 200 Elite. Today, I traveled only 15 miles to the lake....and my rear tires were screamin' hot! Not the tires...but I believe the brakes themselves. When I dropped the boat in....the wheels were so hot, that I had smoke come up from both sides.

Then... I drove boat home, and same thing.

I have a tourny in 7 hours---and am concerned.... is there a way I can just shut off those brakes temporarily? Could it be a wire? I did check the brake fluid...and its filled.


The trailer/boat are in great condition...but I don't know whats going on here?
