Chris of Charleston, SC asks:

What is the actual clearance height of the Nordhavn 40? Is the Nordhavn 40 "short" enough to traverse the inland French waterways from the Med to the North Sea?

Pete Eunson responds:

The bridge clearance is about 26 feet. If you were to lower the spar this would take the height down to about 17 feet to the top of the radar antenna. There is also a short section of the stainless exhaust that exits the top of the FRP stack that would need to be removed. I dont know what kind of clearance is needed for the European canals but that is about as low as we go!
