I am deeply indebted to all of you who responded to my request for information, both here 
on the list and by e-mail.  You've provided me with truly useful information.  Now I just
have to determine how to get my air draft down to a workable level.  

I'll do some measuring, but my first thought is to remove the paravane poles and replace
the mast with a smaller, temporary mast to carry a small radar, a steaming light, an anchor 
light, and an anemometer transducer.   With a little luck, I should be able to get my air 
draft down to 15 feet or less.

Thanks again to all hands . . . . what a great resource you are!
