Bridge clearance for R-17

[msu1966]

I have seen 3 different measurements for the R-27 on this site @ 8' 1", Ranger manual for my 2013 R-27 @ 8' 8" and Passagemaker @ 9' 8" all with mast down.

Does anyone know the actual height? I need to clear a 9 ft. bridge height if I move my boat for this season.
Thanks,
Ken

The specs I have for my 2012 R27 are:

Bridge clearance: 12' mast up, 8'8" mast down.

Mine is a 2015 R27. The manual has it listed as 8' 9" with mast down. If the bridge height is correct, you should be Ok with the mast down. But don't forget to lower your VHF antenna, too! Go slowly!
