Seller's Description
A rare find, Unforgettable is a classic Ted Brewer Lazy Jack schooner, meticulously restored with $60,000 in upgrades, making her a turnkey vessel for coastal cruising or liveaboard life. Built in 1979 by Ted Hermann Boatshop, she is hull #27 of only 35 ever built, giving her a unique pedigree and a place in sailing history.
Her fiberglass hull ensures durability, while her traditional schooner rig offers a timeless aesthetic with modern ease of handling. The Yanmar 28HP diesel provides a 190-250 NM range, making her efficient under power. New wiring, plumbing, and electronics bring this classic vessel into the modern era, while updated cabinetry, cushions, and a Dometic A/C system make her comfortable for extended stays aboard.
For sailing enthusiasts, Unforgettable comes with a new jib (2024) and new foresail (2023) from Quantum Sails, a 130% roller-furled genoa, and a well-maintained Marconi mainsail, giving her a versatile and efficient sail plan. The two Lewmar winches (2023) add to the ease of sail handling, and her stainless steel standing rigging is in solid condition.
With spacious accommodations for four, a manual foot-pump freshwater system, and a composting head, shes designed for simplicity, efficiency, and ease of maintenance. Whether youre dreaming of cruising the coast, living aboard, or owning a head-turning classic schooner, Unforgettable is ready to set sail.

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
-
16.2
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
-
32.0
<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
- Displacement/Length
-
416.4
>400: very heavy
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
-
31.0
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
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
-
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
Notes
The first 32 LAZYJACK’s were built by Ted Hermann in LI, NY (USA). Of these, a number were sold in kit form.
