Re: Trailer sway
There are many things that can make a trailer sway,
Too lower tow hitch on the vehicle,weight distribution on the trailer,tyre preasures,axle alignment and a whole host of other things
Put up a pic of your boat and car hooked together

Re: Trailer sway
Probably not enough weight on the tow ball.

Re: Trailer sway
It's normally caused by having too much weight at the ass end of the trailer, did this recently with a dingo and not fun. Had to stop and reposition it on trailer
