    Happy New Year to me...

    I purchased a 2020 20TE and brought it home yesterday. I look forward to participating the Falcon boat forum.

    For the love of god PLEASE get poles painted to match the orange on your boat. God that would look incredible. Sexy looking boat.

    Thanks! That's the plan... I am waiting to for the orange mercury stickers to arrive now... I do have concerns whether or not I can get the boat in the garage with poles. With the engine trimmed down and the jack plate I only have 2 inches in vertical clearance.

    Nice rig! Have you measured the total height? I’m looking at getting a similar rig and garage door clearance is an issue. Thinking I’ll need to drop the poles partially to clear the door. I didn’t think the motor height would be an issue.

    Sounds like im paying the money to get a new bigger door put in lol......but seriously lol. I wouldnt want to worry about the headache. Id definitely be pricing it up!

    Another option for the poles/door clearance issue is to get the Gen 2 Fold Down brackets from Ritch at Hydrilla Gear (Board Sponsor) Then you can just fold them down and not have to worry about if you put them down enough to back in, or forget to put them down when you pull out!
