    Around 26ft, I have a 30x35 garage for my 21RDC and I have plenty, but wouldn't want any less, and I never fold my tongue

    24 3/4 feet with the tongue folded and the motor trimmed down with a 300xs on a 16" jack plate.

    I put mine in a 20' x 20' garage for a short period when I had 2 boats. It took two of us to put it in there but it fit. The motor was about 2" from the wall and the garage door cleared the folded tongue by a few inches.

    I have a 21XDC and it fits easy in my 26' storage with tongue folded. My guess is bare minimum 25. Brand of trailer can play a role. Its all about where they install folding tongue

    To give you an idea: my 21xd (21’10”) with motor on motor toter (half tilt) and tongue straight is 27’ from prop to tip of tongue. If motor was trimmed down and tongue folded, should take off about 2.5’ from normal total. So 24.5’ approx. As Todd and barbarian said, 26’ will (should) work.

    24' at an angle with my 21xrs with 300 opti...I'd say 25' if not at an angle.
