Anybody found out that having the 260 keel is a problem when mooring or visiting shallow waters around the coast in the Med especially greek islands.

Hi the only time we have been worried about tiny differences like that was up little creeks and bays in and around the Solent. Places we could only go with very accurate secondary port calculations and even then only on weekend neaps!

 

If you are in the med, I can't see you having a problem.
