It appears that there are differing reports from the literature.
Sailboatdata.com has the draft at 4.2' for shoal and 5.00' for standard. In
any case, it appears that the shoal is somewhere between 4'3" and 4'6" and that
theory holds a bit in practice of the owners, but the shoal still points well
enough (although not as good as standard as would be expected) and sails to its
handicap.

My literature states that my shoal draft 1973 version is also about 4'6". A
friend had the std version, which was raced in the old SORC and his was
5'3".Don't know if there were changes made to the keels during the run, but
those were numbers I'm aware of.I find that in 10kts of wind, I'm doing by best
upwind by tacking through 90deg. So I don't point as high, but I do make good
time to the weather mark.RonWild CheriC&C 30-1STL
