[Public-list] Depth measurement for documentation

[Gail DeMoss]

The specifications for the Alberg 30 state the draft is 4'3".  Ballast, 
3300 lbs.  Displacement, 9000 lbs.  Beam, 8'9". L.O.A., 30'3".  L.W.L, 
21'8" and sail area, 410 sq. ft. working canvas.  All of this 
information was found in the Chesapeake Bay Alberg 30 One-Design 
Association, Inc. handbook

Although, every time we have gone aground I could have sworn we were in 
at least 6 feet of water!  Do we really have that much "stuff" on the boat?

 Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things
 that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.  So throw off the
 bowlines.  Sail away from the safe harbor.  Catch the trade winds
 in your sails.  Explore. Dream.  Discover.
