Default Garage Door Question

I was wondering what size door I would need to fit a 32' Renegade on a trailer with an arch? The boat will be entering from the short side of the barn not the long way, so I didn't want to put four really large doors.

The boat is probably 11+ ft on the trailer. Since 13'6" is the standard height limit I installed a pair of 12w x 14t doors on my garage. If I can get it down the road, I can get it in the garage!

A buddy had a Scarab 302 CC and had to have the arch hinged so it would fit in a 10ft door......it wasn't even close with the arch up.

That's what I don't want to do is hinge the arch, one more point to get loose. I will see how 12' doors will look on the plan.

BTW: I now have a little 21ft cc with a T-top......the top is almost 11ft off the ground, the white running light on top of that is another 5 inches up.

14' door will accept anything legal.

I talked to Renegade they said the boat was 10'7" on the trailer, they had one there. I'm having the plans done with 12' doors and see how it looks. The barn door at the end will be 14' just in case.

Just go for a 14' tall door. If you have a double door go 18' wide. Like others said with single door 12' wide.
