Hello, is there anybody familiar with River Battleships additional rules?

I need help with chapter 17.44 Grounding:
"Roll one die, add the depth and subtract the draw."

I guess "the draw" means draught of boats. But I cannot find such characteristic anywhere. Could you explain how to play grounding?

It is in 17.4 Boat Movement, last bullet point.

Phew, thank you! I don't know how I lost it Blush

Anyway it means that in scenarios with depth=3 grounding is impossible, because 1+3-2=2. It's the lowest possible die result. So even a boat pushed to the river bank by Current cannot be grounded Dodgy

It is easy to miss, yes to the depth of 3 & draft of two, read 17.44 Grounding third paragraph.
