Wikiwiki– “The Fast One”: True to her name, Wikiwiki is indeed fast but she has Outremer’s exquisite balance of performance, comfort and safety. Having already crossed the Atlantic and the Pacific, Wikiwiki is poised to go again with recent updates since her last Pacific crossing.
All Outremer 5X are amazing vessels,and Wikwiki is even more so. Not only is she a V2 version with sporty reverse bows and many performance options such as carbon mast, carbon bimini, carbon reinforced bulkheads, carbon davits,Kevlar rigging, and daggerboards, but she has the full suite of sails, from the Code Zero (new) and Parasailor to the 3Di mainsail and the heavy air self-tacking staysail, for swift passages in almost any conditions.
Even with this focus on performance, Wikiwiki’s power is easily managed by a couple from the comfortable and protected helm stations. For the ultimate in on-the-water sensations, the sailing enthusiast can choose to helm from the Formula One style chairs with the upgraded carbon tillers.
Of course, all this speed is no good if the family is not comfortable ! This is an owner’s version with the port hull dedicated to the owners’ well-being: large bed aft, desk amidships and the expansive toilet and shower area forward. The starboard side features two cabins with the forward cabin flexible as bunks or a queen configuration and a queen guest cabin aft. The large salon and galley offer great sightlines and plenty of ventilation. Travel to the cockpit is seam less and the cockpit offers a safe and comfortable place to live whether at anchor or underway.
With extraordinarily comfortable accommodations for such a performance vessel,Wikiwiki is fully equipped for off-grid travel with solar, lithium batteries, genset, watermaker, and extensive refrigeration, and when you do eventually return to a dock, Wikiwikiis world-travel ready and can plug into shore power whether 220V or 110V.
Wikwiki: Performance and comfort that has served this family well. She is ready to take the next owners on their own adventures anywhere swiftly, safely, and in comfort.

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
- Sail Area/Displacement
- ?
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.
- Ballast/Displacement
- ?
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
- Displacement/Length
- ?
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
- Comfort Ratio
- ?
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
- Capsize Screening
- ?
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
