 Re: 1660 Gator tail
I have an 1860 I'll be going to the storage unit later today to remove the blind etc. I can take some measurements for you.
I'll tell you right now I'm storing in a 10x28' and I have 3' +/- just off the top of my head so its around 25' long.
Width I have about a foot on each side maybe more.

 Re: 1660 Gator tail

 Re: 1660 Gator tail
I hope Ace will measure his for me, I really want one... Damn home owners assoc. will not let me keep one outside. Therefore it has to fit in my garage. I have around 19-20 foot front to back. I know I need a swing or pull away tongue. I just need to know how far the motor sticks out ? and how much space is saved when its turned to the side.

 Re: 1660 Gator tail
Your motor will also hang off the end of the trailer / boat at least 2' straight back if not more... now if you turn it to the side you might get to 2' it will be close. If you angle the trailer into your garage you can probably achieve your goal. You'll for sure need a swing away.

 Re: 1660 Gator tail
call GT they would probably know. I'm sure you would not be the first person to ask that question.
