Hello Everyon. I was just curious as to how deep my boat sets in the water. It is a 92 Supra Comp. I just want to make sure I know when I am close to running in too shallow of water. Thanks!

I try to stay out of waist deep water, but i've been through about thigh deep cuts to make it in the river. One key thing to remember is if you get into shallow water put your boat in neutral incase you make contact with the prop.

Actually I think I remember NADA might list that info. Pretty sure my 87 SunSport has 18" draft which is crazy shallow. Back in the 80s they made the boats 500-1000 lbs lighter than later models by using kevlar in the hulls. Now they make 'em heavier on purpose hehe.
