Closer to 20' if it's a crew cab LWB dually.

My shop is 30 X 40 outside dimensions so probably 29 X 39 inside. My old 311 Formula on a Loadmaster trailer would only fit if I removed the brake actuator from the tongue of the trailer.

You want a MINIMUM of 45 feet. My boat is a few inches shorter than a Top Gun, and its 43+ feet from the coupler to the diffuser rings with the drives trimmed out.

Correct, number given was in reference to length on a Myco. This is the exact measurement used when shipping a vessel overseas. So, I agree a minimum of 45ft. would probably be a good idea and playing it on the safe side.

Which trailer?
The boat sits a little lower on a steel Myco and a bit higher on aluminum. I know, I've had both.
