    Draft of a 47-gctid812471

    Thought I posted this before. Anyone know the draft of a 47? I think I have it written on my boat somewhere.

    I've seen both 3' 4" and 3' 6". I believe the propeller tips are the lowest point, so if you are heavily loaded, particularly aft, I'd add 3-4 inches.

        BOY! I wish my boat had that draft... at 4'10" to over 5 ' (depending on who you believe) it makes places like Fisherman's Bay in the San Juan's at challenge to get into...

          39" with half tanks of fuel , full water, and a jet ski on the boat deck.

          Measured with dive gear, level and ruler.

            Thanks, nothing like a real measurement. I did mine years ago when boat hauled and I could see water line and wrote it down but can not find it now.
