I need to do a little welding on my trailer. Do yall think it will mess anything up with my electronic or motor if I leave the boat on my trailer? I will be welding at the tongue.

No. You can unhook your battery if it makes you nervous at all.

No concerns. People weld on high end vehicle frames and heavy equipment all the time.
