aniceguy.
I have a two car garage with two doors instead of one. Both doors measure just slightly over 8. How wide is a 2010 (if year matters) P2 tandem axle trailer at its widest point? So basically I need to know what the measurements are from the outside of one fender over to the other. I dont think length will be an issue. My garage is slightly over 22. I believe this would be enough room with the swing away tongue. Please correct me if Im wrong.Thanks in advance fellas.-JakeMy CatI Am Second
Jake BYou should have room as the boat can be the widest part at around 94″. We dont know in MM how close, though real close. The factory staff will be tied up, and someone might beat them to this one. You can also get a narrower frame on special order. BCB
Thanks for the quick reply. And to the best of my knowledge the widest point of the P2 is 93″, correct? Man thats a tight fit!Last edited by Jake B on May 9th, 2010, 4:46 am, edited 1 time in total.My CatI Am Second

Im looking at getting the same thing just single console. What is the length of your boat from front to back (including engine). Did you get the swing away tongue? My garage is right at 22. And also.. How did you modify your garage door (any pics)?. Very interested in getting some tips on how I can widen my door without having to put up one big header that spans both doors..Thanks again.My CatI Am Second

I had the same problem after I ordered my boat since I had 8 doors and a 22 deep garage. The depth is not a problem as I have about 5 inches left once you swing the trailer tongue around. The door width on the other hand was a hassle at first but it is nice having one big door since it makes it much easier to back in knowing you have plenty of room on either side.

I have a huge gable over my garage. It just scares me knowing that in order to add one big header I have to build some sort of temp wall or supporting wall to hold up all that weight in order to remove the two smaller headers. Im also worried that I would have to remove some of the siding on the front of my house in order to remove the existing headers. But I agree with you, it would be so much nicer just to back that thing in without worrying about having enough room… Now if only I wasnt a chicken!BTW.. Did you have a professional do the modification, or did you do it yourself? If it was a professional, what did they charge you? Thanks My CatI Am Second
No me and my father did it ourselves with some other help lifting the beams up when we got to that part. It was actually a pretty easy job once we got it done. We did it all from the inside of the garage and nothing was changed on the outside other then the center post between the doors. lol

its a very easy thing to do if two things fall into place, either your handy or have money to spend, in my case I would have to remove the center support size a prelam beam, and a larger say 16 foot door, which would look strange but it is easy enough to do I figure it would cost me and its what I do for a living around 3500, so Im not going down that route. I have other locales where I can store the rig when its storage timeThe support of the front load is easy to get donw with 2 laminated 3/4 osb over 4 laminated 2×6 it should easily support the garageThanks the rig is pretty cool, sucks that I have 30k winds and rain since I got it Friday and its painfully sitting in my driveway,
