Seller's Description

The owner bought this boat in 2020

Standard features

2005 Hunter 216 21 6” sloop racing/day sailor with low-hour 2020 Tohatsu 6 HP motor with motor stand. The boat was last bottom painted in spring 2023. This sailboat has a couple features that make it really stand out, like a rub rail all around that tor is totally solid and a keel that is raised by a hydraulic pump. This boat is virtually maintenance free on the inside and out for years of carefree pleasure. The 216 is the ultimate daysailer with overnighting capability! The ACP-thermoformed 216 is the lightest 22-foot sailboat in the world. The large rear cockpit accommodates six people in comfort, while the small cuddy cabin is fun for overnighting, with space for a portable head (included). The special hydraulic lift mechanism allows for effortless lifting of the 500-pound lead keel, while the unique lifting inboard rudder delivers real performance with true beaching ability. Super easy to rig and launch! LOA 216,, Waterline Length 189, Beam 711, Draft Board Up 10, Draft Board Down 36 Sail Area 252 sq ft, Mast Height 3011, Basic Weight 1,350 lbs., Towing Weight 1,850 lbs.

Calculations

Hull Speed
8.8 kn
Classic: 5.8 kn

Hull Speed

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Formula

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

8.79 knots
Classic formula: 5.8 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
32.9
>20: high performance

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
32.86
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
37.0
<40: less stiff, less powerful

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

37.03
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
91.3
<100: Ultralight

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
91.29
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
6.7
<20: lightweight racing boat

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
6.74
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
2.9
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
2.86
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

ABS plastic contruction (Luran®)
Hydraulically lifting keel. Lifting ‘VARA’ rudder system.
Replaced (2010) with a newer HUNTER 22, built of more conventional FG.
