Respectively, metric draft marks are 10cm in height, and are spaced 10cm apart. The bottom of each number is the equivalent draft for the value given.When the waterline reaches the bottom of a given draft mark, say 90 (9.0 Meters) the draft is 9 meters. If the 90 draft mark is halfway submerged, the draft is 90.5 (9.05 Meters) If waterline reaches the top of the 90 draft mark the draft is then 91 (9.1 Meters). Once the waterline reaches halfway between draft marks 90 and 92 (only the even numbers are marked) the draft is 91.5 (9.15 Meters).
