🔍 Key Concepts

• Standard draft mark dimensions (height of numbers and spacing between them) • What part of the number corresponds to the exact whole-foot draft • How to convert inches of immersion on the mark into feet and inches of draft

💭 Think About

• First, decide whether the bottom, middle, or top of the number "9" represents exactly 9 feet of draft. • Picture the 6-inch-high numeral "9": if the top 2 inches are dry, how many inches of that numeral are underwater? • Translate the number of submerged inches on the "9" into additional inches above 9'-0" of draft.

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that the numeral is 6 inches high and there is 6 inches of space between numerals (1 foot between the bottoms of adjacent numbers). • Be sure you are measuring upward from the bottom of the 9, since that point represents 9'-0" of draft. • After you find the inches above 9'-0", check that your final draft is between 9'-0" and 9'-6", because the waterline is still cutting across the "9" and has not reached the space above it.
