8' beam into 7'9" garage door
Does anyone have any clever ideas as to how I can get mt 8' beam boat into/through my 7'9" wide garage door? Plenty of room once it's through the door but??? Tilt on side maybe? Anyone ever done this?

Now you know why I put 8x9 doors in my garage when I built it.

Thanks to all so far...some very good observations and solid ideas, real solid... I was thinking I could put it in stern first. using a motor lift I could lift the stern and possibly tilt the boat enough to get it through. no motor on it right now and it weighs about 1700 dry. The trailer is no where near as wide. The 8' is an actual measurement and I need to find 3 inches. I figured someone on here must have had a similar issue. I need to get it in to work on through the winter and then haul it out in the Spring. Don't tell me I have the best idea so far as to how to do it...that's not good for me and doesn't say much about all of you out there who I know are always being thrown "how the heck are we going to do that" problems all the time! That's boating ! so really...try a little harder and help me get this in my garage! Thank you...peace my friends! If we can make 18 foot boats go over 100mph and put twin 250's on a 20' boat, this should be a piece of cake. Try harder!!!
