Hello everyone from a newbie

[Crumbs38]

Hi all I have just bought a 2001 2600 scr and just registered
I have not had the fun of being on the water yet the mechanic is doing a service and giving it a once over
I do have a small question dose anyone know the real length from anchor spicket to duck board I need to know for the marina (that's how they charge)

Thanks in advance

Hey man welcome!

That is a big vessel. Congrats. I have a 2004 2400 and it is just over 26'. I would say you are pretty close to 30' my man.
What do you have for engine and out drives?

Hey thanks for the welcome
She has a 350 magnum and a bravo 1 leg
If she goes over 9 meters it cost another 1k per year in the racks and they measure it there I hope I get to hold one end of the tape measure lol

[MAXUM2500SE]

So why go metric on us then. For the laymen 39 inches to the metre (yes it is spelled metre). So what is your question?

[Crumbs38]

Sry i am from Australia I don't know much about feet and inches

Crumbs38 welcome aboard.

Most boats of that error were about a foot longer than their badged size so a 2600 would be a 26 ft + 1 ft or 27 ft LOA. Converted to 8.2 Meters.

That should be close enough for the marina. If like mine they will round it up to 9 meters.

Thanks I thought it looked bigger and they will round it up

Thanks

I ALWAYS give them the length printed on the side of the boat. If it said 2600, my answer to the marina would be 26 ft. let THEM break out the tape measure and tell you differently.

The only time this might be an issue is if you are not allowed to extend past the outer most pilings of a slip or if you are side tied along a pier.

I need a 35ft slip at my marina because the anchor and bow pulpit stick out past the pilings of a 30 ft slip and my particular marina won't allow that. (I actually think it is a good idea. If some gets pushed into the boats due to strong wind or mechanical failure, they broadside the pilings, not the anchors and bow pulpits (what you refer to as an 'anchor spicket').
