Boat 1978 Tayana cutter Present owner has sailed Kittytoes for the last 15 years with 13 of those years in the sea of Cortez, she is stored on the hard in the off season and is covered, all sails including dodger and running rigging are removed and stored below deck thus ensuring that this equipment is in top condition. Prior to the present owners the boat spent her time in the Gulf islands with a short stay in Alaska. We sailed Kittytoes from the gulf islands to Mexico 2009 and have never left. Kittytoes has been in dry storage for the past 3 years. All sails dodger and covers stored below deck and dry. Boat has a sun cover for protection in dry storage. Dry storage can be assumed by purchaser if so, desired thus having a location in Mazatln to keep the boat Due to health and age, we are looking to have someone continue the adventure Kittytoes has to offer. Kittytoes has been completely overhauled Contact for full list!

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)
Available as Cutter or Ketch, as well as Pilot House version (shown in drawing).
