I’m confused? I’m looking for:

Height on Trailer G3.5 Tower Folded Down, PTM Racks, Tower Hoop ON, 18in wheels    =  ?

OK, I didn't see your PTM racks.

Height on Trailer, G3.5 Tower Folded Down, PTM Racks,18in wheels = 110.5"

I expect this is with the hoop ON.

You’ll be fine with a 10’ door. The PTMs will stick up above your tower hoop anyway, so just fold those inward if you need more clearance.
 

I’m backing down a sloped approach for my shop door and I’ve got 3-4” clearance with the PTMs folded to the rear, and a good foot of clearance if I fold them inside the boat.

Thanks for the input. You have a 10 foot door?

Unfortunately, yes.

Ok so we will fold the racks in and put dower down and it will clear 10 feet without having to remove the hoop. Very happy to hear this :)

Anyone at the factory this week? I've got a 25 on the line. 

Factory has really cracked down on people taking their own pictures. I’ve had luck with requesting my dealer to get pictures, have you asked them?

No, dealer would probably not want to ask or extend but Kasey at the factory was going to get some pics for me. He's awesome.

He did a great job for our tour and was busy taking pictures for a couple other people while we were there.

My only complaint is the  Malibu logo on the side of the boat doesn't match the Graphite gel coat color like it did in the online configurator.  Oh well, close enough.

The graphic is not the same? That's rough. I have a light graphite going on right now with the thought it is the same color. That's a bummer.

Kudos to Kris and his staff at VS Marine.  Super easy to work with, consignment sold my old boat, no headaches!

 

Can't wait to get out on the water.

Ya its a little more 'titanium' looking and not as much muted blue/grey that the graphite gel coat has.  It may not be as noticeable on your boat since the graphite gel coat is up above the rub rail and underneath.  Mine is right next to it so it is a little easier to see the difference.  I'm wondering if I can find a paint to match that would hold up to the water and the elements?  Or I look into getting these replaced with the black ones and just go with the muted look... I'll probably just live with it the first season and see how it goes.

I kinda like it actually.

I bet Domed Numbers can do it.

Roll with it. These guys know their stuff. My graphics came in different than I expected. I had the same attitude as you and went with it. I am now very happy with the way mine came in. The wife wasn’t happy either. But we both are very happy now that we have had it a year. 😎 @timmypop  don’t worry. It will look great!!!
