What an IDIOT!

The construction of the hull has NOTHING to do
with the depth measurement.

The depth measurement is from the overhead to
the top of the hull and is measured in the accommodation
from the overhead to the floor of the hull atop the keel.

The entire keel is NOT measured. What a PUTZ!

For starters, the number implies that the vessel was documented roughly 20 years ago.
Its rather unlikely that RB (or any other owner) would bother changing the measurement, so
this is probably the original measurement that the factory supplied.

Also, "Hull Depth" usually refers to the distance from the top of the deck or sometimes
the coachroof, down to the bottom of the hull, not including the keel.

Due to the particular construction of C&C's, with a faired in keel stub, the
entire keel legally qualifies as part of the hull for measurement purposes.
