1998 Pacific Seacraft 37 Crealock Cutter

Listed

Seller's Description

Ready to take you anywhere in the world Satori lies dockside in Shelter Bay Marina in Panama. Commissioned in 1999, hull number 343 of Bill Crealocks legendary design of an ultimate couple cruiser, the original owners spared nothing in making her ready for an 8 year circumnavigation and bluewater passage making. Since Ive had her, as the second owner, shes suited me well as a full time live aboard for the last 7 years. With 54 countries beneath her keel shes ready to continue her voyage in th hands of a new owner. My time aboard is over. She has been meticulously maintained and upgraded during the course of her life.

Stem to stern she is loaded, from the Lighthouse 1501 dual gypsy with capstan windlass to the Monitor wind vane and Spectra water maker. Powered by the upgrade Yammer 4JH2E 51 hp diesel she has crisp and fresh sails as of 2000. For outboards for the Achilles roll up aluminum floor 9 1/2 dinghy she sports a 1998 Yamaha 15 hp 2 stroke backed up by a Honda 2.3 hp for your typical cruising needs. Ground tackle include CQR 45 and 35 mounted anchors and a Fortress 85 storm anchor with bridle. Below decks she boasts a refit galley as well as a full size commode in the head and new cushions throughout. Fiberglass Fuel Tank - baffled with 2 inspection ports. Fuel system rebuild 2019.

Above decks, protected by brand new Sunbrella gas tank covers, she carries 45 additional gallons of fuel in addition to her 35 gallon tank, maximizing her cruising range. Custom stern hardrails with a custom dual paddle board rack and paddle boards and dual scuba tank holder and scuba tanks are integrated with and support her KISS wind generator, solar panels and her B&G Radar maximizing the utility of her outboard space to create as much space below decks as possible.

There is no doubt that Satori is the finest example of a Pacific Seacraft Crealock 37 currently available. Having graced the cover of Latitude 38 and had a feature article written about her in BOAT magazine during our time together she is now ready for her next owner and her next adventure,

Calculations

Hull Speed
7.1 kn
Classic: 7.06 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

7.14 knots
Classic formula: 7.06 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
15.6
<16: under powered

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.
15.57
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
38.8
<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

38.75
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
334.0
275-350: heavy

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
334.02
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
33.7
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising 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
33.72
<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
1.7
<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
1.72
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
