air draft antigua

[andyhesford]

we have hired Antigua for 11 days in july hoping to go through wroxham to coltishall , just looking at richardsons brochure it says Antigua has air draft of  7ft 2in but all the other boats that are similar like highland gem san lucia say 6ft 10in even all the the 44ft one like Tobago san diego san elena and majestic gem say 6ft 10ins is it correct or a miss print , it will proberly go through with right conditions but its being  bugging me I am sure somebody on here will know .

Hi Andy,

 

I would be very very surprised if that boat does not go through Wroxham Bridge, unless there are exceedingly high tides. Perhaps Clive Richo may be able to confirm my thoughts if he reads this thread.
