Ok I dumb. What is the difference between

Gunwale length, Centerline length, and Length over all?

 

[spfortjohn]

Gunwale is the distance from the bow to stern along the rubrail
centerline is from bow to stern down the center
overall is the center from the bow and attachments to the stern and drive. Or platform

Thanks! So LOA would be the Centerline + swim platform +bow pulpit. Well then I guess by boat grew. I added a big platform so it grew 2 feet on LOA.

Just don't tell any marina's that charge by the foot... LOL

Yea they charge me 28 for my 26 to dry stack.

When I talk to my fishing buddies, I have a 27, when I call a marina for a dock, I have a 26ft:grin:.

 

[Ka1oxd]

Well at are marina they do not charge by the foot so it makes no difference. If I make it to Block Island this summer, it just a 34 foot!

I pay for 45' for my 350 Sundancer 40' LOA + 5' maneuvering room (2.5 fore and aft)

When I stay at a guest dock I always tell them 41' but many of them are pretty savy and look it up then charge me for the 45' 6" LOA. My berth is only 40' X 15' so with my LOA at 45' 6" I have the anchor a couple of fet over the dock (with an orange life vest on it for safety) and my SP hangs out in the fairway. A friend backs in his 460DA and sticks out 10' or more! Barely squeezes in there but pays for a 40' berth.
