Top hat overall height

Hi All.
Does anyone have a rough measurement of a Mk1. From bottom of keel to roof top. Need it for info for the truck transport. Cheers Frank

Hi Frank,
From the drawings of the Mark 3 in the gallery, it looks like a Mark 3 is between 2.5 and 3m. I don't think a Mark 1 will be much different.

Thanks Steve. I would think you're correct. Looking at side on views , and knowing the draught it's a pretty good estimate.

No that's not correct.

The Mark 1 cabin top is about 6" higher as formit [on mk 1 & 3] lowered the cabin top as well as raising the Cockpit floor by 6".
That's why you see canopies on Mk 2 & 3, but rarely on Mk 1's
In fact the Mark 3 cabin top is lower again than a Mk 2.

All hulls are 2m from keel to gunnel
Add 400 to the mast Bridge on a Mk 1. I suspect that is about the same for all marks.

I haven't actually measured vertically from the mast bridge to a point that clears all push/pullpits and the main sheet rail.
If you rest your mast on the push/pullpits you will have to add a bit.
