If you you need to move your boat a couple feet in the garage. Grab a wheel and try spinning it. It actually is quite easy to move a boat trailer like that.

It would be too tall to fit in my garage. As it is it only clears my 8' door by less than an InchOriginally posted by WABoating View PostComment

How do you grab a wheel with the fenders in the way? I gotta see someone moving one of these trailer by hand! Someone needs to post a videoOriginally posted by kx250frider617 View PostComment

With the tower up, or down? Could you put the casters under the wheels after the highest part is already in the garage, and then position the trailer?Originally posted by DrPorter View PostComment

Only if the wheel I'm grabbing is the steering wheel of my truck....Originally posted by kx250frider617 View Post

Guys. I will be able to back it into the garage at least 75% each time. I then usually unhook and push it in the rest I generally also have to rotate it about 5 to 10 degrees. This was extremely easy with my current single axle. Hopng this same process is still feasible with a double axle and extra 500 pound boat. Thoughts?Comment

super simple. I use two of these on the front axle. Once I back it into my garage I have to pivot it about 30 degrees. I back it in as far as I can then put these on the front axle, and it pivots just like a single axle would. I then lower them and push it back about a foot, and I'm done. I thought the 1250lb capacity would not be enough, but I haven't had any issues so far with the Z3. The easiest way I've found to move the boat forward and backward in a straight line in the garage is by just pushing on one of the tires, and just rolling it . To push it back, I stand on the starboard side, put my left hand on top of the rear tire (just fore of the top of the tire), my right hand grabs the front edge of the fender in front of the front tire, then just push on the rear tire to roll it back. I found this is much easier than pushing on the boat itself.

Excellent point, only one set is necessary to make a dual axle trailer act like a single axle.
BTW, the ones I mentioned are good for 1500 pounds each (3000/axle). They would require a floor jack, though, where your solution doesn't.Comment

either would work. I opted for the ones I use because it doesn't require another jack, and I don't have to lift the tire that high. I lift it just so it clears the floor with about a 1/4" gap.Originally posted by WABoating View Post2013 Z3 - Electric blue and blackComment

That is exactly how we load our boat into the garage - back in about 75% unhook then I push and turn it to about a 30* angle. Without the aids the above are showing doing this with a dual axle will be a pain if not impossible.Comment

Update. Demo'd the A20 last night and was not blown away. Wakeboard wake was pretty good even without ballast. Surf wake was ok. We did get it tall but not a lot of push. Boat looks sweet though. Did not like the windshield because I got soaked. Folding of the tower was a show stopper. Not a one person job. Platform removal could be done with one person.Comment

I had an A22 before my current Z1. I never had any problems with my Axis and had a good wake but the tige is miles ahead in my opinion.
