Selling my FX21 and it would be nice to get something I can fit in my garage if possible...

My garage is 21x19 - anyone have their boat in a garage this size?

Anyone know the size needed for a ZX225?

Thanks

I am thinking Go jacks are in your future, maybe u already have them.

I know i use to fit a 20'2" Nitro 911 in a 20x19 garage. The fender design was limiting me. Fenders went so far back I was loosing 6 to 8 inches. But it worked for that garage barely. Prolly could have had a 20' 4" boat in that garage.

I wonder if they would let you borrow a boat b4 u buy. to see if it fits. Heck pay someone you know with a zx225 to see if it fits.

I have a 2018 ZX225 and it is exactly 23�4� for storage with motor down and tounge swung. I have a 23�6� garage depth and I have about an inch on either side, lol. That sir, is real world numbers!

This one will prolly fit

Hoping someone had some real world experience with this size garage. I�d borrow a buddies but my driveway has an angle and I�m going to need go jacks and one of those things you can buy to move the trailer around by hand.

My 193 Champion fits just fine

I too have a Zx225, 2016 model and as mentioned above it's 23'-4" in the shortage position (folded tongue and motor trimmed down) The website dimensions must of had a different setup. I would measure myself before buying if your dimensions maybe critical.

21x19 garage would be 28' plus on angle but then it's a matter of getting it in there.

Is your garage 21' deep and 19' wide? If not, you're completely screwed. I did tons of research when I sold my 20 Champ. My garage is 22'4" deep and only a couple of 20' Basscat models would fit straight in because of the way the motor sits on an inset at the back of Basscats. I found a good deal and went with a Legend 191. With a break away tongue it fits straight in with about 4" of space front and back left over. Otherwise you're gonna have to straddle both stalls and use rollers to move it in and out.

My 225 fits great in a 16X32 boat barn/garage, I built big red her own lil house...

The above will show you all the phoenix lengths.

Go jacks are the way to go...cheaper than a new building and if you ever get a bigger building, they will sell fast. Also if you buy quality Go jacks for each wheel, you will be surprised on how easy you can move that boat around without a lot of strain.

I did have a nice 30x40 shop until my wife decided we needed to live in Trophy Club... Had to sell my place out towards Decatur and move to town. I have a single car garage that�s 25� deep but the opening is too narrow to get a trailer in. FX21 appears to be sold so I just want to get something I can keep in the big garage since I hate having it in storage. Think I�ll pick me up a zx225 and it should fit in the 21x19 at an angle. Thanks

My garage is 19x20 roughly. I built shelving on both sides way before I bought a boat and I also have a work bench. I�m able to store a 16 Eyra with a 250 Pro XS and poles. I initially was looking at a Caracal but did more research. Was glad I did because it put me in a 20� with a 250. The only trick is I have to angle it in right and most time I�m good. Every once in a while it can be a pain in the butt. Sure beats paying for storage and I love the convenience.

Have a buddy who has a stairwell with a closet below it inside his house right behind the garage, so he cut a whole in the wall, built a box around it inside the closet, and backs it in where the motor fits in the box that's in the stairwell closet. Pretty extreme, but works for him.
