I purchased a 2005 Cobalt 262. I forgot to measure the vertical length from the ground to the top of the bimini cover. Does anyone have those measurements? I'm going to store it in an out building and I just wanted to make sure it fits through the garage door opening without having to take down the bimini... I've enclosed a picture of the boat on the trailer... Thanks

While in the water, it has a 90" clearance. With it on the trailer, I'd add another 26" to 28", minimum, to be safe. Will you be boating in Missouri? Nice looking boat, congrats on your purchase.

Hey great to see you went with the 262 over the 242. Solid performer there. You will NOT be disappointed with this model speaking from experience. Enjoy!

The more you put in the water, the more is shrinks. I remember when we thought our R3 was large.
