Seller's Description

1981 C&C 24 Sloop

Therapy is waiting for you, on a mooring in East Boothbay, Maine. I bought her last summer and got her buffed and back in the water and sailed a few times but I wont have time to sail her this summer and I need the money.

Shes turnkey all you need is for the weather to warm up we will mount the outboard and the rudder and away shell go:

Length 24, Beam 8, Draft 4 Masthead sloop, aluminum mast, stepped on deck Fin hull with transom-hung rudder, 1,050 lb ballast Sleeps four (V berth in bow, port and starboard in cabin) V berth has two 6’ 2” berths with 4” foam mattresses, storage below and overhead hatch. Full length storage shelves port and starboard; privacy curtain. Main cabin has a large lounge with padded backrests; centerline dining table. Yachtsaver installed pretty much makes it unsinkable in an emergency (like airbags for a boat; yes, enough to keep it afloat, no I have not tested it, nor do I know how you would, the company is no longer in business) Bow pulpit, stanchions and lifelines Cockpit easily holds 6 super spacious for this size boat great for family or groups Tiller steering is e-z and comfortable 15 hp electric start long shaft 4-cycle Yamaha is powerful, damn quiet, sips gasoline and is super clean New six gallon portable fuel tank sit under port cockpit New battery summer 2020 New Ritchie compasses, port and starboard in cockpit New Cockpit dodger summer 2020 Mainsail and jib are in great shape; two reef points on main Internal main and genoa halyards; Harken mainsheet ratcheting block; jib and spinnaker snatch blocks. Sail covers are used but solid Anchor mounted on bow pulpit Apelco radar still works! Autotiller turns on; I never took the time to calibrate and try it out but seems workable Mounted interior radio works; new antenna installed when launched in 2020 Depth finder Speed indicator Toilet with 16 gallon flexi-storage container Swim ladder, fold-down, stern mounted Interior cushions were all washed, bleached, dried, stored inside for win

Calculations

Hull Speed
7.1 kn
Classic: 5.92 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

7.1 knots
Classic formula: 5.92 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
18.6
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.
18.57
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
32.8
<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

32.8
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
193.0
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
192.95
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
13.1
<20: lightweight racing 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
13.08
<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
2.4
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising

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
2.38
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
