Highlander floats outside width?

Looking at building either a highlander or a kitfox on floats next year after I get my workshop up this year, and planning on 12'w x 14'h roll up doors. Wondering what the width of a highlander with wings folded on say zenair amphibs would be just to make sure 12' will be wide enough. I'd hate to find out the hard way :roll: for bonus points, how about the same for a kitfox? I'm waiting on member approval over at https://teamkitfox.com/.
Also this is more towards the build forum, but I'm not finding a standout builder forum for the highlander. Is BCF just as good as any, or are there any more active than here? Edit.. probably nevermind, I found the link to http://www.wingsforum.com/ on Just Aircraft's site.

Re: Highlander floats outside width?

According to David Price, his kitfox is 8'-3" outboard to outboard, and center to center of floats 6'-2" . So they are a lot narrower than I thought.
