[Public-List] Measurements for registration ~ British Registry for Canadian Ships

[John Birch]

Anybody with their Registration Docs for British Registry for Canadian Ships 
will have all the info this poster requires on their docs. I have an A-37 so 
my info is useless. I know the length is 26' from stem to rudder post for an 
A-30.

Best of Luck
