Subject: [C320-list] Draft again

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"????
