GL: Looking for Defever 49

[Ralph Yost]

We were on a Defever 49 RPH today whose bridge clearance (vertical) was 24 
ft due to a fixed aluminum frame hard top that is not removable or able to 
be lowered.
Check each boat individually for similar obstructions to being able to pass 
through The Loop.
R,
