Just to demonstrate too much time on my hands on a Sunday afternoon:
Tuff 20'8" + 18" setback = 22' 2"
SV 20'4" + 10" setback = 21' 2"
SS 18'9" + 8" setback = 19' 5" = longest possible without a swing trailer
The Tuff is a lot wider than the SV, so the size difference is bigger than just the length shows.
The SS is a pretty small 20' boat. The SRV w/Laser deck is just idle thought. Replacing my Baja would improve my quality of life more than replacing my Allison.
I have thought about this too because I keep my trailer queen in my garage all the time. The lengths above you must not be factoring in the length of a fully trimmed down motor. You need to factor this as well. In my garage I could squeeze in around 23'6". plus even eith a swing Tonge most trailers will still have something jettison out the front I find.
It would all be resolved for me if my wife would only let me put a hole in the back wall into our living room.
Just do it, she'll get over it eventually.
