One of the more attractive 31” cruising sailboats you will find. Built by Chaparral Boats as a Carolina coastal cruiser she is a well built and sturdy with a broad beam in pristine condition accompanied with all the equipment and extras that make cruising comfortable in the northwest. If unique is what you seek, we have not seen another Bombay Clipper in the Salish Sea in 5 years of cruising! Below salon and bunk like new, with full galley, 2 burner, solenoid controlled LPG stove (two LPG tanks transom mounted for easy access), double stainless steel sink and lots of storage. Dickerson Diesel heater works great. Full head with attached shower bracket and ample additional storage. Forward double berth with sliding door, both galley settees convert to full 7 bunks.
Equipment: Rebuilt Yanmar 2GM Diesel installed winter of 2018 with new transmission and motor mounts and rebuilt alternator (now with 115 running hours). Haul out included, rebuilding coupling box, rebuild, new Zincs and propeller coupling nut. Hull sanded and fresh paint. Many extras including full cockpit canvas enclosure, new zippers and vinyl (2017). New deep cycling battery charger 2020. Paperwork available for review. Walker Bay RID-10 dingy mounted to a strong davit on aft transom. Cockpit ice box and swim ladder with engine instruments at helm wheel station. Compass, speed and depth sounder in cockpit. All sheets and lines lead to cockpit, with lazy jacks for main sail and a Schaefer roller furling jib (165 genoa and storm) and manual spinnaker halyard all in great condition. Bow roller with manual windlass and 50’ chain and 200’ rode on a Danforth anchor. Cockpit binnacles with spacious storage, includes 2nd emergency anchor with 200’ anchor & line. Electric control panel, 2 electric bilge pump 1 with auto control float switch, 110V shore power and all working running lights operational. 2 ea. sheet and halyards winches, all stainless 1/4” rigging, chain plates and stantions.
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.
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
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.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
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.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
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.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
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.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
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.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Some later boats were built by Chapparel Co. (USA)
Alt. deep keel: 5.1’
