2150 xl
 
Hey I am looking at a 1990 Mariah 2150 xl I love the boat the only problem is that I will have too navigate through shallow water and I was wondering if anyone would happen to know the draft of the boat sitting in the water? Thanks for any help.

I don't know the exact draft of this model but I will tell u that a general rule, for me at least, 3ft depth while moving slowly is where I start to get concerned. The boat would probably handle 2.5 ft depth with the lower unit trimmed up a bit. If the boat is fully loaded this will increase your draft. Bottom condition is another consideration. Rocks and stumps while moving in shallow water make me real nervous, lol. I don't go above idle speed in anything this shallow either. Other members may have some more specific numbers. Hope this helps
Happy Boating
