This is a stamp of approval on why the 21' was the right one for us over the 24'

Talk about barely fitting, wow. Look at the garage door line and where it will come down. Fits by inches, Perfect fit. Luckily have a couple feet behind the boat so we can walk behind it when using the other garage doors with getting out of the cars and sliding behind the boat to get into the house through the garage. 24' and trailer would have never worked so glad we got the 21' as it was and has been an awesome size for us. This fit was icing on the cake. We had such an awesome summer on the jet boat with our first summer owning a boat. Made some great memories. Glad it fit in the garage as that saves boatel monthly fees all winter long which will be a huge savings. Liked the convenience of the boatel dry storage in the summer though and will do it again next year.

Questions:

Since this will be in the garage and not harsh winter environments could I get away with just doing fuel stabilizer? I have almost a full tank of gas. I would rather not take the boat out of the garage again as that was crazy backing that thing in to that spot. I guess i could fog the motors in garage? I don't want to do that if it's not a necessity though. I just had an oil change a few months ago at 20 hours and we are at 50 hours now. So I should be good on not doing oil change?

Thanks guys!

I would fog it, it should be easy and you only have to run the engines for a minute

with that said there are many boats that never get fogged and are still running, I wouldn't worry about the oil change,

I would try to fill the tank up all the way to give condensation as little room as possible and add stabilizer,

You have yourself a garage queen there. Those are my favorite boats to buy used. They are always in much better shape than the ones that are left outside. I hate leaving my 23 outside. Once the kids are gone, I will go back to an 18' just to have it in my garage.

Awesome fit!!! I'm very envious of you having a garage that big. I would fog the engines, however it will shoot out a bit of water out the back and you might not want that hitting the wall.

Thanks, the big 3 car garage is nice for sure. Was hoping the boat could fit in the middle garage but it needed the longest one which is furthest on the right (closest to inside garage door). Luckily my Sierra Denali fits in middle perfect and wife's Yukon Denali fits in left one perfect. We got lucky for sure with the sizing of everything. I thought one of our cars was gonna be on the driveway this winter but it all worked out well! Here's a pic of me trying the middle one first. Needed the 2 more feet the right garage has as our garages have a stepped/Tiered sizing from longest on right to shortest on left.
