I know the mast on a catalina 22 is 25' but what is the height from waterline to top?

I never had to worry about it before where I sailed but there is a bridge not to far from me that would shorten a trip for me. It's 32' haven't tried it doubt I will still just curious what if any clearance there would be.

On our MK-II version, I need 33' clearance, but I have a VHF antenna on top of my mast)

knew it was really close. Something inside me just knows that it will be that exact moment that I go under that a rogue wave will push me up a couple feet.

There are a couple locations up and down Southern Calif. that I have pay attention to the tide status. But don't forget, all the different C-22 versions also have different mast lengths and overall mast heights.
