Draft and list factor on a 27' Ranger

[DreadKnot]

Need advise or comments from folks that have put their Ranger "on the beach". We aren't beaching ours, but we have an opportunity to moor it in 18" of water below our house. We are on tidal estuary with 18" of freshwater creek at low tide, and well over 14' at high tide. The creek is sandy bottom. The plan it to face the boat bow into the current. We installed two marine embedment anchors (bow and stern) to keep the boat within the channel as the tide goes out. Does anyone have experience with their Ranger in 18" of water? I thought a few people had mentioned mooring their boats below their houses, and some said that their moorings go dry a few times per year at extreme low tides (-2 to -3). We are wondering what the list would be, roughly. Any comments or experiences, pro and con, would be appreciated.

If I was you I would put something like trailer bunks under the boat so when low tides comes in the boat is cradled. I think they are available in plastic floats too.

I have a R25 and we tie up to a dock in the creek behind our house. Sometimes the tide does go down to about 18 inches when the moon and winds line up just right. There is a list but it is not too excessive. I would guess about 10 degrees when it is fully on the bottom. I've also intentionally bottomed on a local sand bar to do some bottom work. The boat handles it really well.
