Length of boat and trailer

[Dry feet]

Hi, Want to buy a Mac 25 and have a parking area on the side of my house for an RV or boat. It is about 30' long. My question is, how long is a Mac 25 when sitting on a trailer? From the tongue of the trailer to the stern of the boat.
Thank you for any help.

Approximately.....

Right now mine is in a slip. Mine has about 4-5' of tongue and about 2' of mast end to end. So, fo an approximation, based on memory, about 30 - 32' end to end.

Just enough

Thank you for your help. Sounds like that I have just enough room for a Mac 25.

Pretty Close

Add a foot and a half at the back and a foot and a half in the front of the boat and that is how much length my Mac 25 takes up in the driveway. That accounts for the 28 foot mast. The trailer tongue is one foot and a half in front of the bow and my Ida Sailor rudder is the other foot and a half at the stern. The mast is centered over that in the trailering configuration.

folding tongue

i've seen a folding trailer tongue (i think @ Cabela's) that folds back for storage to shrink trlr length by about 14-16". it's a simple weld-on. you'll still have mast length to deal with but this will at least shorten the portion at ground level a little if needed.
