Tom,
Cyrena #466 also sits high in the bow even with the boat fully
rigged and all tanks full. I'm glad you asked the question
because I was also wondering if this was normal. 466 does
not have a boot stripe but I could see that the antifouling
near the bow was about 1 1/2 to 2 inches above the waterline.

I just assumed a previous owner had completely removed the
old antifouling and had not paid attention when applying the
new coating. The engine was also retrofitted with a 1984
Volvo Penta Diesel 2002 and I thought that it might have been
heavier than the original.

>From the response to your inquiry, I gather that mine is just
like all the others.
