OK guys need your thoughts. I am looking at what I think is a real deal on a boat, runs good, looks good etc....only problem is trailer will not fit in my garage. If it had a swing away tongue it would fit. Boat and trailer are both 07 and in great shape, the trailer is an upgrade because it is a galvanized trailer. Do you think a dealer would trade/sell me a swing away trailer for the galvanized? Thoughts?
By the way an individual is selling it.
If nothing else, I believe there are kits out there to convert a standard tongue into a folding type.

Dumb question but did you try it at an angle?You didn't say 2 or 3 car garage? I put my 21 footer with a removable tongue in at an angle,my wife's STS fits.However with tongue in place even at an angle it takes up the whole garage.
I took down the wall at the back of my garage and moved it 4 ' back into my basement ( raised bungalow) worked great!
Lower the motor turn the wheel to save a few inches then crank the trailer all the way down in the front to save even more space!! every inch counts right
Like the guys said, at an angle if possible, trimming the motor down or simply add the swing away tongue kit that you say will make it fit. Not sure if a board sponsor has them or not but Cabela's ( item number IK-020388) has them for example.
Get a bigger garage!! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/smile.gif just had to say that
when I added another garage (converted my original garage to office ) the set backs on my lot made making it full size impossible. what I did was build a 3'x3' bump out insidedimension at the back in the center for the motor. this solved my problem . i now have a20i skeeter in thegarage w a swing away tongue. You can put a swing away on your trailer . Make sure you go to a good welder to have it installed
