bridge clearance

[bob skipper]

need to know the bridbe clearance for the vision 32?, mast height is 53 but is thatheight above water line.?

 

[Ed]

Yes.

The actual length of the mast is less, but to avoid confusion and possible impact with a low fixed bridge, the length provided is always from the waterline.~ Happy sails to you ~ _/) ~

Add 6

The spec. height of the Vision 32 mast is 53' 6" above water line. Might be picky but that last 6" can really grab. Allow for antenna and windex also.

bang crack, mast falling down

I had a very expensive lession......260 manual says 40ft bridge clearance it is... bridge said 50 ft clearance it wasn't...... bridge hit mast 18 inches below head of mast, mast came down very nicly in two pieces...... $5,600 later...... inland lake no tide and at full pond. bridge was incorrectly marked. lession learned...... don't beleave everything you read.JohnBaums Rush
