There's a P42 or 420 in Bray Marina, could be a 44. Air draft should be ok as long as the arch can hinge down. Have a look at the big stuff at Harleyford to see what's possible. Cookham lock cut is the lowest and Eton/Windsor the most awkward due to the arch, especially if there's a big flow.
We will have to remove the radar & lights from the arch, the arch is the same height as the front of the flying bridge so not worth hinging it. Princess say it is 3.68m to top of arch excluding lights and radar.
Fantastic craft in rough seas. Really handles well however I am not so sure about getting it up river past Windsor even if fitted with folding arch etc.
There are a few Princess 412-2's on the river and they quote the height without radar arch as 3.72m. Would be better if we knew of one already in use on the river..

My 435 could just squeeze through Windsor & Cookham but it was always a hairy feeling especially going downstream through Windsor with a little flow. Cassy is a 415 but I don't know if he ever goes downstream from his mooring which is just above Temple.
Cassy seems to be resident just above Hurley Lock now, Byron. Literally just above, at the head of that little backwater on the left as you leave heading upstream.
