Thumbs up Measurement question Thor Hurricane 29m HELP

I have a camp site that I reserved awhile ago and took my MH in for servicing before I measured it all! Our smaller trailer would work but can anyone tell me if their Hurricane 29m (mine is 2017) would fit on a 21' pad? There are no trees or other obstacles in the way beyond the curb. There is a curb at 21' and then 15' or more of sand/beach. Width is not problem.

Thank you!!!!

You can use your wheelbase as a good estimate: 190" or almost 16'. Given that I'd say you probably can lay the rear wheels right up against the curb and still have a good 3 or 4 feet in front of the coach free. (Looking at a Hurricane pic it looks like there is 1 or 2 feet in front of the front wheels and the rest is rear overhang.)

The other issue here is: How high is the curb? Is it higher than the ground clearance of the body behind the rear wheels?

Your wheelbase is 190" or a little under 16'. There should be plenty of clearance under the coach for curbs. The jacks are probably about 14' or so apart so you should very nicely on a 21' pad. Hope you have fun, post pictures!
