1993 Hunter Legend 40.5

$76,000 USD

Seller's Description

Proven turnkey cruiser! This Hunter Legend 40.5 Moxie just completed Americas Great Loop on August 14th 2022 after 11 months of full-time cruising with our family of four. We bought this boat in the Spring of 2021 specifically for our Great Loop adventure, and weve been extremely happy with our choice. My wife and I are both hands-on mechanical engineers in the marine industry and weve thoughtfully upgraded Moxie for comfortable extended cruising while working remote and homeschooling. We put over 800 hours on the Yanmar diesel in our 11 month voyage and found her to be very reliable and economical. The Hunter Legend 40.5 is a fantastic cruiser for a couple or a family. She is very roomy down below and has a well thought out layout on deck. The step-down transom provides easy access for dinghy and swimming. She has a bulb wing keel for a stable shallow draft and a fractional rig with roller furling genoa, dutchman reefing of the mainsail and all lines are led aft to make for easy sail handling. Sails refurbished in 2020. This vessel has been very well maintained with many upgrades and new equipment. Includes 2010 West Marine RU260 inflatable dinghy with 5HP Mercury. The interior is spacious live aboard layout with private forward and aft cabins, two heads with showers, a very large salon and galley with plenty of counter space. The galley has dual stainless sinks, Corian countertops, front and top loading refrigerator, a good-sized freezer, microwave and 3-burner stove/oven. We upgraded the electrical system to provide adequate power for extended stretches off of shore power. Highlights below with details available on request. Galley fuel has been converted from CNG to LPG with installation of Trident propane locker with solenoid valve and control panel. The locker accommodates a standard 20lb LP tank. The rail grill has the hose and valve kit installed to run off the central LP system. Whether you aspire to weekends on the Great Lakes, adventures in the North Channel, or dream of setting off for the Florida Keys, this boat will take you there!

Calculations

Hull Speed
9.4 kn
Classic: 7.97 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

9.42 knots
Classic formula: 7.97 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
16.5
16-20: good 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.
16.5
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
35.0
<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

35.0
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
202.4
200-275: moderate

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
202.39
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
29.1
20-30: coastal cruiser

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
29.06
<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
1.8
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

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
1.83
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
