Has anyone measured or recorded a ballpark air draft for a DS? Driving around I've seen a ton of drawbridges around here. Up to this point I've never had to deal with one in my boat but some areas I'd like to sail in has them around.
An example would be Matlacha Pass Bridge, with 9' listed clearance. Obviously I'm not making it under that one, but others are a bit higher like the drawbridge in LaBelle, FL. That one lists 28ft. There are warnings about fines for having to open bridges needlessly; not sure that's enforced or not but I'd rather not find out the hard way. Estimating by some of the one design dimensions it looks like it would be around 25ft. but I haven't been able to find anything concrete. It should be easy enough to measure when I get home but I'm bored on break so figured I'd do some internet research and maybe save myself the trouble.
