I didn't buy the boat yet as I decided not to cut the mast and due to very shallow waters figured with a 4 ft draft would be stuck in mud in the marina many days. Figured I'd be ruining a very nice boat. Hope to see you o...

Hey Demitri-I here you-Courtney Campbell is low clearance 42 foot according to coastguard. 3 bridges for me to get out ...
