Seller's Description

Velocity is a 2011 Catalina 445, hull number 54. She is well equipped and well maintained. This vessel is cruise ready and located at Herrington Harbor South Marina in Tracys Landing, MD 20779. Velocity is easy to show and ready to sail away.

Catalina introduced the 445, the first of the Catalina 5 Series yachts as a 2010 model year yacht. The 445 became a stunning success immediately and has won prestigious awards from Sail Magazine and Cruising World Magazine. The Catalina 445 introduced several outstanding safety and performance features, in addition to Catalina standards and custom outfitting items including: Collision Bulkhead aft of anchor locker Strike Zone-under anchor locker Secure Socket Chainplate System Dedicated Structural Grid T-Beam Mast Step System Teak Interiors Lead Keel-Shoal Draft Deep Defense Rudder System Centralized Filter Lockers Wide weather decks for easy moving fore and aft Five part structural construction Dual helm stations with sailing instruments at each helm Engine and thruster controls at starboard helm VHF Ram mic at starboard helm GPS Chart plotter MDF at aft end of cockpit table Walk through transom with telescoping stainless steel swim ladder Lazarette lockers port and starboard Outboard motor mounts on stern rail Micron 66 ablative anti-fouling, 2022 Lewmar bow thruster with joy stick at starboard helm station Electric self tailing winches-Primaries and Sail Handling Two 16,000 btu air conditioning systems 6.5 KW Fischer Panda generator 2 x 250 and 2 x 100 watt rigid solar panels mounted above the hard bimini Raymarine suite of navigation electronics Three Handheld VHF W/DSC, water resistant Floating Eight VHF water resistant Floating RedPort Wifi repeater Fleet one Highspeed Internet and Sat Phone Two PLB Beacons One EPIRB One Jon Bouy MOB device One Eight Man Life Raft One Comanche Reacher (155) sail One Set of heavy air Spin Sheets One Set Light Air Spin Sheets One Sat Phone, handheld One Red port portable Wifi for handheld Sat phone Six Gahaue

Calculations

Hull Speed
10.0 kn
Classic: 8.28 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

10.02 knots
Classic formula: 8.28 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
16.6
16-20: good performance

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.
16.62
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
30.6
<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

30.59
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
187.9
100-200: light

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
187.88
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
28.0
20-30: coastal cruiser

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
27.97
<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
1.9
<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
1.89
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

Wing Keel draft: 5’/1.52m
