    2020 518 L with minn Kota Raptor

    My buddy has the 2020 518L. He is wondering what the height stowed is in the garage. Told him we may get an answer here.
    if you have blades, that could be an option as well.

    thanks

    I have a friend that has a 2021 Nitro z18 and has Raptors. I thought they were 10’ but they were only 8’ so I thought they sat high. Different boat but this interests me as I thought of removing my single 10’ talon and going with two 8’ Raptors but my garage ceiling is very low and I need a tilt bracket on my talon to back into the garage. Hopefully someone will come along with an answer.

    I have a 2019 518 L with 8 foot Blades and from floor to the top of the Blades it is 7 foot 2 inches. I have a 7 foot garage door and I just deploy them a bit for pulling boat out or into the garage. It is very easy using the hand held remote. Hope this helps, let me know if more info is needed.

    Seven foot garage doors are almost standard on most homes - including mine. I have owned four boats with PP's (one Phoenix and three Rangers) and I have to drop the PP's five inches to take the boat in and out of garage.

    I use these and highly recommend them. I disconnect the bottom two push pins and the power poles lay down on my back deck. This is how I store them with my boat in the garage.
