length with trailer?
 
I'm sure it depends on the trailer, but ball park a v20 on a trailer.. how long total? I'm working with a parking space issue at my place. I don't want to piss off the neighbors with it sticking out too far.

thanks!

My 20' V is right around 25' between the hitch and the motor sticking out the back

yea I was affraid of something like that.. looks like I'm stuck with a 17-18 boat.
I like to fish in the ocean, not the river here. I'll just have to be real careful picking my days and how far I go away from shore.

Thanks for checking

Fulton makes a fold away tongue hitch for your trailer.

Mines 27 1/2 ft from the hitch to the skeg with the motor tilted up. You can trim the motor down when you park it and save a foot or so. What about a V18?

I'm working with a rather compact size parking spot (unless I pay to park it in a lot nearby.. but I'm trying to be cheap (responsible..ugg) with my toys for now).
I've got just about 20' and that's pushing it. I can stick out about a foot more then that with the trailer tounge... and with the fold back tounge.. maybe a V18 (I didn't know there was such a beast) would work. I've limited myself to 17's with baitwells on either side of the OB, or 18's.

Suggests on other make/models is appreciated as well.

thanks

Welcome to the site Manitou......get you a boat of some type and make yourself at home.

We let all kinds in here, even Sea Ox owners.
