Yeah, I have a goofy garage setup. Big workbench on the back wall limits my length ... the motor, tilted up a bit, just fits under. I have the folding trailer tongue, a deal saver. My door is short though ... I think it was a replacement and they did something funny with the trim ...

My dad's boat, when I was a kid, we could prop the garage door up a few more inches by jamming a two-by-four in between the frame and the door. That's the only way his boat would clear. (ugly if we missed, as it was a walk-through with windows).

I always envisioned myself in a 17 Montauk ... standing ... I love the center consoles. After two summers in my Super Sport ... I don't regret the choice I made under my limitations. It's a really good boat. Next boat ... won't fit in the garage at all ... and I'll keep it at a marina, either docked or racked. But I don't know if there will be a next boat ... I'm pretty happy.
