Tom Pls note that this is a register dimension, and the certificates use the notation "depth", which is the internal height, either to the deck edge, or to the imaginary deck camber midships. The coachroof is ignored.
Register dimensions vary in different countries because the definitions can be different, as written down in national laws. Also, the legislation is made for ships, and may not always be suitable for sailing yachts.
Kind regards
Lars
