2007 Tomcat 6.2 (20) sailing catamaran Hull # 38 with Yamaha 4 stroke 9.9hp electric start outboard. AM/FM Sterio, depth and speed instrument, Nav lights.
Specs: LOA 203, LWL 20, Beam 112 (8 on trailer), Draft 8 (board up), 36 (board down), MHH 296, Weight dry 850#, with engine 1150#, Sail area 210 sq/ft Main and Jib, custom Hyland trailer. Built by Strain Associates Ontario, Canada.
Great boat for sailing the St Johns or ICW. It has been dry stored inside for most of its life in AZ. One season in the water in Tampa Bay. Got a trawler so something has to go. Tom Cats are transportable but require a few hours to go from road transport configuration to ready to launch.
The cockpit layout fore and aft facing fold-down sleeper seats and can be used under sail or power. Ccamper-top, with isinglass windscreen, screen side enclosures and solid canvass rear enclosure, mahogany table, snap-in I/O carpet make it a great pocket cruiser for overnight or sport cruise for the weekend.
The single high aspect ratio foil centerboard gives excellent upwind performance, and combined with rockered hulls, easy tacking at any wind speed. Twin interconnected rudders provide dual tiller helm positions for sailing, with a wheel helm steering both motor and rudders for motoring comfort and control. All boards rotate up for shallow draft and beachability. The rig is typical beach cat, with rotating mast and fully battened mainsail. Jibs are roller furling and lazy jacks for the mainsail are standard, so all sail handling is easily done from the cockpit. . The trailer includes all of the mechanisms required to assemble or disassemble the boat for highway travel. Twin hull racks roll out on extension bars and rotate upright, with the bunks now providing side to side positioning. Use the winch to lower the bridgedeck into the hulls, fasten the bolts, and you are ready to raise the rig and go sailing. The motor, batteries and gas tank remain in place during trailering. Access to the hull hatches on the trailer provides storage for all other boat components.
Equipment: 9.9 Yamaha Outboard New Main and Jib Depth and Speed instrument
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)
Trailerable beam: 8.0’.
Water ballast optional.
