    Not sure if he's hung on getting Power Poles but you can get a Talon and buy the tilt bracket and garage height isn't an issue. Or you can loose 4 bolts and lower it as low as you like.. I can't speak to the PP...

    Tilt bracket..

    I have a 929 with a single Power Pole on it, it passes under my 8' door without any problems.

    It all depends on the boat/trailer, and how it mounts to the boat (JP height).

    Mine needs a 7'2" garage door, and my garage door is 7', so I'd have to lower it slightly to get it in.

    All you do is lower the poles, no screws or anything else. The height of garage is important as well as the angle of attack entering the garage.

    Re: Nitros W/Power poles (BMCD)

    i have 7' garage doors, i just lower my powerpole to get in and out. I just have to remember to do it. Just keep the wireless remote in the truck with me when transporting and click it down low enough to back in then just put it up once in. i have a Z8. no big deal at all.
