Seller's Description
Go to Sailing Texas classifieds for current sailboats for sale Hobie Getaway, 2011 sailboat for sale LOA: 16.5 feet Location: Austin, Texas Price: $7500
It’s time to move up to a bigger boat so we are selling our 2011 Hobie Getaway, which includes:
New jib snorkel from SLO Sail and Canvas (2016) New front trampoline from SLO Sail and Canvas (2017) New main trampoline from SLO Sail and Canvas (2018) New sail bag from SLO Sail and Canvas (2018) New wing covers from SLO Sail and Canvas (2020)
This boat includes the Hobie “wings” which fold in towards the center of the boat when it’s not in use. The wings make this a very comfortable boat… sit on them or sit on a hull and lean back against the wing.
The two upgraded trampolines and the wing covers are made from high strength material with teflon stitching… much more durable than the original material from Hobie. The main trampoline has been barely used. This boat also included a “Cheata Motor Bracket” which provides a mount point for an outboard. I used it with a Torqeedo electric motor, which is not included at this price. The price of $7500 is for the Hobie Getaway with the wing package, the upgraded trampoline and the Cheata Motor Bracket. I have an old, unregistered catamaran trailer –with an integrated storage box– that I will throw in for FREE if you want it. The trailer has never been registered or licensed.

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

>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.
- Ballast/Displacement
- ?
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
- Displacement/Length
- ?
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
- Comfort Ratio
- ?
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
- Capsize Screening
-
4.2
>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
Notes
