In CT, I think the only time you might run into trouble would be if a DOT cop saw you. They are seen running up and down the highways pulling over trucks for inspection. That, and maybe a sharp eyed town cop near a popular launch.
They would have to phsically measure you're beam. I wonder if State Troopers carry around a tape measure?
If you got into an accident with a boat greater than 8.5', it would be a totally different situation of course.
