It's going to depend on the tongue length of your particular trailer, which varies from trailer to trailer. With the mast on the trailer, it's easy - 26.6', length of the mast which protrudes over the front and the back of the trailer. With the mast off, it'll be around 20' - 22' (tongue length of usually 4' - 6' plus 16')
There are ways to make it work. My 17 was too long on the trailer to fit in my garage, so I hoisted it off the trailer from the rafters and shoved the trailer all the way in. The mast hung on a rack on the side of my house. Then I had a 17' Thistle monohull. I built a bump out on the garage, and the mast hung diagonally in my garage. Just fit. Now I rent a storage garage for my Getaway and Sunfish.
