Watercraft Trailer/Dealer


In 1966 a new series of plates was issued called Motor Vehicle Business. This series continued until about 1984, when it was split into four groups, the largest of which was Repair/Service Towing. The other three included Salvage Yard, Transporter and Repossessor (sometimes referred to as Financier or Collector-Repossessor). Each of these new types had their own distinctive prefix. RS & RT for Repair/Service Towing which was abbreviated REP / SER TOWING and later shortened to REPAIR TOWING. Salvage Yard used a WL prefix, while Transporter and Repossessor used DT and RE respectively. Some years later (1995) Watercraft Trailer Dealers also became part of this group. These plates use a WD prefix.
