I doubt that it was a Bermuda 40. Since it was a yawl(or maybe ketch rigged) , 
a  B40 would likely have only 55 ‘ or less mast height. 
My C&C 41 with a triple spreader tall rig is ~ 62 feet above the water. I keep 
thinking that I can make it through most of the ICW bridges.
Perhaps that boat was a Hinkley Souwester 50??

Three basic questions:

 

Reducing 85 feet of air draft to 65 feet requires 40 degrees of heel. What prep 
would you need to do to keep all your gear from ending up on the low side in a 
“gear-alanche”?

 

How in the heck much do those water bags weight to heel a Bermuda 40 that much, 
and just how much stress do those water bags put on the mast?

 

And who in their right mind would take a boat with an 85 foot air draft down 
the ICW anyway?

  Can anyone tell me the mast height above water for a C&C 30 MKI.
  Prospective new owner needs info to make sure they can clear a bridge.
