It still would not fit.

The boat itself is 6' 6" and the smallest part of the opening WITHOUT the rear cap being removed is only 67".
Do the math the space to get it in is just not there.

1) The size of the opening (all measurements) once the center of the end cap has been removed?
The opening is 64.5" tall, and 67" wide (at it's smallest).


Unless I cut the boat down the middle to put one half in at a time and glue it back together when I get home. LOL Laughing (Me being silly - not fully awake yet and thinking about my doctors appointment = YUCKO.) Very Happy

Marie and I are blessed to have had a 2nd chance to buy our farm.
Still hoping and more importantly praying to be able to build a garage.
Our 1970 Ultravan #520 has an Olds Toronado 455 in back.
