I was looking at an '05 or '06 Malibu VLX or other similar wakeboard boat but worried about storage and garage height. Do any of you put them in a 7 foot garage? If so which towers fit. Thanks

Brad, <BR> <BR>Also keep an eye on width too. I tuck my 04 VLX (skylon Swoop Tower) into a 7 Foot garage. I have to remove the boat guides on the side of the trailer, then I only have ~3 inches on each side of the wheel wells. I have about 2 vertical inches for the tower to clear. Finally, I have about 5 inches of depth left over after swinging the tongue. It's a tight squeeze, and sometimes I get the boat stuck in the garage for 15 minutes while I maneuver the truck back and forth to get it out. <BR> <BR>They increased the width from 04 to 05 on the VLXs. <BR> <BR>But, it beats leaving it outside.

Thanks, the garage is ten feet wide and 25 feet deep, just wasn't thinking about the height, only 7 feet, when it was built. Glad to hear an 04 fits. I know the 05's and 06's are wider and I'm guessing sit up high on the trailer.
