Wow that one got completely cut off!

Six foot nine draft for me.  As Joel stated though, results may vary.

Chad,

There may be more than one keel.  My former 44 has a Scheel keel at 5.5 feet.

The original brochure for the H44 says the deep keel draft is 6ft.  Yet I have seen people list the official draft as 6.89ft.  Curious what the "real" draft is?  I am trying to haul out in a place that told me they won't haul me out if my draft is greater than 6.5ft.
