What does Beam mean in this context?

[tkeithlu]

I think you got some decimal points in the wrong place.

One of my students, now a well respected pediatrican, did that. Gave his lab rat 1.0 CC sodium pentabarbital rather than 0.1 cc. The rat died happy.

Hi John
Beam is the depth of the boat when she's in the water.

In the UK Beam = width - in your case 4.80m
What you call Beam, we call Draft - in your case 1.5 metres.

It seems to me on a 20m boat, 1.5m is quite a shallow draft.

That is the meaning of both terms everywhere boat English is spoken, not just British English.

I see no real gear for true sailing, so a 5 ft. Draft may not matter. Looks like an excursion boat to me.
