Draft Specifications
When your boat manufacturer lists your draft specifications are they assuming salt water or fresh water. My boat has a 4.5 foot draft which will be more or less depending on fresh water vs salt water. Just curious

If you really want the answer: Introduction to naval architecture - Google Books

Depends a lot on the specs of your boat but I would guess an inch or two. Not enough to worry about.
