I am the 2nd owner of this boat. Purchased in 2005. Boat has been stored indoors every off season. This is a great boat for beginners and experienced sailors. Wide 8’beam and winged keel keeps it very stable and easy to sail. Draft is 19 inches. Sleeps 4, 2 in main berth and 2 in quarter berths.
Equipment: full battened main sail with one reefing point. 130% roller furling jib with integral sunbrella cover. Lazy jacks. Sunbrella cover for tiller and main sail. Two opening ports with screens. Forward deck hatch. Bow pulpit with lifelines. Anchor on bowsprit roller with 4’of chain and 100’ of rode. Dock lines and 3 fenders. Motor mount on rudder as designed by Seaward. Cockpit table and umbrella. Swim ladder, detachable. Wind vane. Self bailing cockpit. Foam flotation. Exterior cockpit cushions in good condition. Interior cabin cushions in good condition. Fire extinguisher, safety horn and flag. Four like new life jackets and two safety boat cushions. Porta-potty (used once in 15 years). 12 volt battery (new 2018). DC electrical system on 4 breaker panel. Running lights and cabin light. Performance brand factory trailer made for Seaward Fox with NEW wheels/tires and repacked bearings. VC-17 bottom paint applied every 3 years. 1999 Johnson 4hp 2 stroke engine, serviced at end of 2019 season or 2018 Honda BF 2.3hp 4 stroke, air cooled, outboard (add $500 to price). Boat gets washed and waxed, inside and out at the end of every season.
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)
First offered with unstayed cat rig.
