Patent attributes
Small boats operated for pleasure are typically transported to the water on a boat trailer, where the boat trailer is backed into the water and the boat is floated off the boat trailer. A removable boat trailer tail light lighting system and method is disclosed that preserves the integrity of the tail light when the rear of a boat trailer is immersed in the water during launching of the transported boat. The invention is in two parts, with metallic plates affixed to the boat trailer, each metallic plate having a mounting frame with three rims that accommodate a magnetic metallic plate backing on the trailer tail light. The trailer tail light is removed prior to the trailer entering the water and re-inserted into the mounting frames on exit from the water.
