Proven Bruce Farr club and coastal racer with amenities to make a great family boat / weekender. A light boat and absolute weapon in light air, she also has a versatile rig and reliable inboard that allows for comfortable family day sailing.
Equipment: Massive sail inventory of over 20 sails, including both a roller furler (and genoa) as well as more racing-oriented headsail foil with a full suite of headsails. 3 mains (2 class legal, 1 daysailing/training) and a full 6 spinnakers of various sizes and functions. Additionally includes storm trysail and storm jib.
Onboard VHF, stereo, and even an older chart plotter.
Fully enclosed head with its own door and new toilet and plumbing plus holding tank.
Origo alcohol stove in a the small galley with cooler and sink.
Comfortable v-berth suitable for two adults. Aft quarter berth on the port side, and convertible saloon table adds additional accommodation.
Trailer, and full lifting kit included.
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)
