2021 23LSV Height w/ G5 Tower

Recommended Posts

Hello Malibu Family,

I’m just a few months away from picking up my new 2021 23LSV and I was wondering if anyone could tell me the height of the boat (on trailer) with the tower up. 
 

Any info will help, but if you have the exact configuration below, please chime in and give me a measurement!!

My dealer shared that he "thinks" it is 10'6" on trailer with tower up.

Tower down measurement would be helpful to me! I’m in the same boat as NorcalMatt

thanks in advance

I've heard it's under 8' with the new G5. I think around 7' 10" IIRC.

I would verify that... when I took a look at the dealer it didn't look under 8'.  Gx is about 7'9" if you take the racks off and that is because it is pretty much flush with the top of the windshield.  The 23LSV w/ G5 I looked at was quite a bit above the windshield when folded.  From what I saw I do not think it would have cleared 8'

What trailer?

 

It changes depending on the trailer.

The standard 2 axle Malibu trailer.  Wheel size makes a very small (1-2") difference.  That's about it.

Wow... so they missed an 8' door by 1/2" with the G5??  Thanks crazy.     GX remains the only real choice if you need to put your 23 away in a garage with an 8' door.  I suppose the G5 would work if you were just doing once a year winter storage and deflated the tires.

Anybody else have more experience with these 2021 23LSVs fitting in an 8 foot garage? I see it’s half an inch over on that sheet, are people deflating the tires and that works, or is the tow hoop easy to remove possibly on these? Any help appreciated!
