Sail Away Today! Happy Destiny is a 2003 47 ft Leopard Catamaran for sale. The Leopard 4700 has received numerous accolades since the models introduction due to her open and spacious layout, easy handling, functional galley up layout, spacious state rooms with large births and generous headroom throughout. Twin Yanmar diesels one replaced in 2014 the other rebuilt 2014 with only 500 hours on each. Kohler generator with 160 hours
This Morelli & Melvin design stretches over the waves allowing for a comfortable cruise at 8 knots or pick up speed with her powerful twin 56 hp Yanmar diesel engines. Her shallow 4’4” draft is ideal for reaching secluded anchorages and her layout is perfect for entertaining guests.
Happy Destiny is ready to cruise. Happy Destiny just returned from her 2022 cruising season in the Bahamas and is currently docked in Port Charlotte, Florida. . Yanmar diesels one replaced in 2014 the other rebuilt 2014 with only 500 hours on each. Kohler generator with 160 hours
Equipment: Happy Destiny can be seen by appointment. Please reach out for additional information contact Brian at 9414487924
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)
