Default How tall is a 3500?

Does anyone knows that actual height of the boat with the arch on?
I recall measuring 11' at the top of windshield. (My boat is 8h away otherwise i'd check myself.)
Can't seem to find any mnfg measurements

I looked under the sites Documents and did not see one for the 3500 but there is one for the 3700 and it says 11' bridge clearance which would be from the water line to top of arch. Maybe some one with a 3500 will know but I would add at least 4' to 5' for below the water line.

yeah according to a boat test review, bridge clearance is 12.6 and draft is 3.1, but i would assume they included the nav light and radar.... trying to get my boat shipped back without having to take the arch down...

They will need to remove everything from the arch.
I measured my 3200 once for road transport and it was 13.5, I think, from the lowest point of the hull to the arch. So, you should ask for the lowboy trailer. There are some overpasses out here that are 13'10".

I Just had my 3500 trailered in the fall, with everything off the arch it is sitting about 15' high from the road. I left my horns on and they caught some telephone lines but it made it under all the overpasses no problem.

Tbone,
what kind of trailer was it it on? Lowboy? or regular 4/5 axle boat trailer?
