   Plates B/C/E/F are the same below 13ft 9in.  Plate H is much narrower   
   but barely tapers at the bottom (think well cars).  I don't have Plate   
   A/D/G/K outlines, so I'm not sure how those compare.   
      
   The "Standard Passenger" plate is slightly wider than Plate H but tapers   
   _more_ than Plates B/C/E/F at the bottom.
