  Vessels Are Measured for Dry Storage

•To calculate the appropriate size of the Dry Slip required, certain measurements must be considered.

•These measurements include the vessel’s maximum length, height, and beam. In determining the vessel’s length, the measurements are taken from the furthest point aft to the furthest point forward.

•It also takes into account appendages such as engines, cowlings, drives, pulpits, and anchors that could affect the overall length.

•The height of the vessel is determined by taking measurements after the 8′ mark from the lowest point of the keel to the highest point of the vessel, which encompasses features like radars, folded antennas, lights, and rigging.

•The vessel’s beam is measured starting at 8′ and extends
to the widest point of the vessel.
