That's awesome that you put so much effort into doing that, but what a PITA!

Thats why it only gets done for the winter.
 
And I thought I had it bad with a trailer mover.....Holy Cow!!!
 
This was my clearance putting it in.

ok, you're kind of the shit!
 
Yeah...that is some effort! Looks like it is uphill to? How do you push it?


I actually pull it Julian. You are right it is up hill. I just pull my rhino into the garage and put a soft strap onto the trailer then hook my winch to the soft strap. Actually it wasnt that bad but a 8 foot header would be better to have. This upcoming winter I have a winch to mount to the floor to aid in the process.
 
There is but I just bought the boat last year and didn't have time to fix the header. It will probably be rasied this year.
 
Could you get it in if you didn't have the tower? I am still not sure if I can get the sx in my 7'1" garage. Thanks
 
Nope my tower is off and I still have to do that. The sx has a little more room because I have to clear my tower mount. You could get by with just dropping the tounge down on the front casters and not have to remove the tires. I know a couple of my friends did this to get their sx210 in.

How deep is your garage? Mine is 23' and I think the door is 8'. I don't have my 240 yet but will get it in May. I have been wondering if it will fit in my garage. I also have an outbuilding that is big but the door is 7' like yours.

What do you use to raise and lower the boat?
 
The boat is in my garage sideways. It is a standard length garage.

Interesting. My door is only a single so I'll have to see how it goes. Why do you put the tires back on the trailer instead of leaving it on the rollers?
