618 storage demenisions ?

[dvkawboy]

I know this question has been answered somewhere but I can’t find it .
i have a super small garage and was wondering storage demensions on a 618
phoenix . If any one has one be a huge help if you can confirm length on trailer with
tongue swonge and width of trailer outside of tire . Also is it possible to push the nose of the boat over a few feet on a tandem trailer ?
Thanks for any help I get .

I'll check for ya when i get home. I have a tandem and it's not easy.

21 Feet 8 inches over all with tongue open and motor trim down (G2 Etec) and 8 feet 3 inches outside wheel to wheel on tandem axle. Hope that helps

Big help , thank you !

you can get some type of floor dollies to move a tandem by hand. the 618 does not need 2 axles but I do recommend you swap tires to load D

If you have ever blown a tire at 70 mph you know why a tandem is a good idea. I know of what I speak . Trailer was damaged and so was my boat. Will never own another boat without one.

I have a set of these from Harbor Freight to help me turn my dual axle 819. Works great.

I have had blowouts on a single. 4 times actually and it was not pleasant. A blow-out can do damage. I run load D's on my single now, change tires every 24 month no matter the situation and run at full pressure. This conservative approach does not say I won't have issues but duels can have issues as well.

There is a sticky at the top of the page with all of the dimensions of the boat with tongue folded and motor down. Here is the info from that.
