Title: LOA and permanent moorage restrictions
Post by: wind dancer on September 12, 2007, 08:27:56 AM
I have read that the LOA for our boats is 35'8".  I'm considering moving my boat to a 36' slip in a marina that allows no overhang (Shilshole).  I'm pretty sure that my bruce anchor doesn't extend much (3" or so?) beyond the pulpit overhang and the outboard I hang off my stern rail doesn't extend beyond the stern of the boat (Mark I).  Has anyone ever been denied a slip because of the length of their boat?  Have you measured the LOA yourself?  I plan on taking a 25' tape measure down to the boat and roughing it out this weekend or next.

Jay - I measured my hull #1150 and it was ~35'6" from the bow pulpit to the stern. The front of the pulpit was forward of my Bruce anchor.
