Hi

I have a 2015 Scarab 165 HO with tower being shipped to me this week.

I have adjusted my garage door height to open as much as possible with a lowest point of 81 inches. I know the manual lists the height on trailer as 2.06 meters (81.10 inches).

I know most of the yamaha boats listing of the height on trailer is incorrect and a little off. Wondering if Scarab is similar?

I can't leave it in my driveway without the HOA nazi's emailing me. So I really am hoping it will clear.

I think it has 13 inch wheels (?) so I can switch them out to 12 inch radials if need be. (I'd let the air out while i wait for wheels to arrive). But that's my only plan at this point.

Is there any chance its going in at 81 inches exactly with tower down - or no way?
 
FWIW - floor to top of garage door is 81 inches. 2015 165 fit in with a few inches to spare. 13 inch wheels.
