Height of G25 on trailer with tower up?

[escmanaze]

Does anybody have a measurement on the height of a G25 on a trailer with the tower up? My father in law is going to be building a new house and is wondering just how big to make the big garage door. He's thinking 14X14 and I'm thinking 14 feet tall should be plenty, but wanted to confirm.

Thanks

I have a g23 that I park in my shop. I believe the boat on the trailer with the tower up is 11 feet high. I have 10 foot doors and 13 foot high ceilings and it doesn't quite fit without dropping the tower. Thought it would be plenty big when we built it 9 years ago, lol! I know mine's a g23 but I don't think the heights are different. Either way a 14 foot door would be plenty.

I have a 12 foot high garage and my G23 is surprisingly close to it on a Boatmate trailer with 18 inch rims. I am pretty sure the G25 hull is actually a little deeper, so although the towers are identical, the top of the tower is farther from the ground.

14 feet would be plenty. And you can tell him that would fit an RV as well, so it will retain its value if a prospective buyer wanted to store an RV instead of a boat.

Standard 2 axel 8500lb Boatmate is 11'6" to 11'8".

on a 10k rated triple axel 11'10"

Tall...from what I understood....All three boats, 21, 23, and 25 are all the same "depth". They are the same beam, draft the same (25")....I think only the length is different. I don't think the 25 is deeper. I could be wrong....but I remember hearing from someone they are all the same width/hull height.

Thanks much guys. It sounds like he should have about 2 feet to spare, which should get us through another one or 2 new versions of boats at least hopefully.

Hmmm...I just had a revelation that the taller G25 boats I have seen were probably on trailers with taller beams. I wonder if the trailer gives it a few extra inches of height that I am imagining.

The 10k rated trailers sit higher... Whether it's a 2 axel 10k or a 3 axel 10k.

the standard 2 axel G23 trailer is 8500lbs rated... Around 11'6" if it's a Boatmate.
