We're seriously considering buying a CB32 or 32+2, and one of our wishes is to bring it home from the boat yard so my husband can work on it. We live about 5 miles away. We don't have to go through any tunnels, just have to worry about telephone and electric lines. Our previous boat was a Monk 36, and it never came home.
Does anyone know what the height is from top to bottom? ( Sorry if my vocabulary isn't very nautical. It's very early in the season. It always takes me some time to remember the lingo! )

Re: Overland trucking clearances for CB32/32+2
The height will depend on whether the boat has a hardtop, and whether it has stuff on top of the hardtop like radar dome, TV antenna and so forth.
When my 35 CB was trucked from Maryland to a yard in Michigan, the hard top had to be taken off for the trip. I assume that was for bridges and/or tunnels.
Afloat with hard top and a radar dome, I slid under bridges that had 15-1/2' clearance on the Erie Canal with about 1-1/2 feet to spare. And the boat draws almost 4', so a casual measurement indicates the total height of the boat is is close to 18' including hard top and electronics. The 32+2 and 35 CB are the same height. Of course, you have to add the height off the ground when it is on a trailer to the 18' height.
