Pulling Double trailers in CA

I want to pull a boat or motorcycle trailer behind my 30' 5er and can not seem to find a definitive answer on this in CA. I have seen them on the roads out here, but do not know fully the legal requirements if any. Does anyone know if there are any special requirements like a CDL? Reading through the DMV literature was very confusing - they seem to state that you can only pull a second trailer if you have a Class A Commercial CDL.
