Default Need a little help.

I have a 1991 27' Fountain, and I need to know what the measurement is from bow eye to transom..? I just got a new trailer and I have to make sure that the boat is gonna fit. The boat is over 7 hours away, and I dont want to find out when i get there that it wont fit........any help would be greatly appreciated.

If all else fails, look at this one.

Your trailer will fit just fine.

Hey the pic is great and very helpful but when I measured my 27 footer I come up with 21ft 8 in from the bow eye to where the shortest part of my transom meets the trailer.

That's because it is 263 'Inches', which is 21' 11".
