Jim,
I have hul 209( shallow bilge) which was supose to be 4ft 3 inch draft (as per brochure
and specs) but in reality it is 4' 10". I think somone at catalina didnt where there glasses when they measured the draft on the early models. that additional 7 " has got me stuck several times.

Now that this subject of draft has come up again...
When did the draft go from 4'3" to 4'10"? I have an old brochure that shows 4'3", while currents one shows 4'4".
I have the old wing design (hull 453), but I think the shallow bilge. It is only 6" or so deep. I don't know if 453 is 4'3", 4'10", or 4'4"????
