Seller's Description
mast,boom,hull,topsides all deck hardware in great shape.6 feet headroom.most woodwork varnished.Capable pocket cruiser, 2 of them circumnavegated.This is better design than a PS Flicka in my opinion.Better use of space.An outboard well to keep engine out of sight,if the engine needed to be replaced you just pull the old and drop the new one in try to do that with diesel like on the Flicka.
Equipment: has 150 new genoa,mainsail with one reefing point.Schaefer CF 500 new furler,deck hardware, stanchionsrebeded 2 years ago.Dyneema lifelines material in box with 2 pelican hooks included,line is 1/4 in(i recommend adding netting to the new lifelines once installed). in box tiller autopilot, tiller tamer,Garmin Echo map new also,with transducer,radio,and antenna,connection for 2 battery banks new,battery selector swich, solar power system battery charging device,(no solar panels)forward glass/aluminum hatch,some interior wood replaced,Bulkhead needs to be cut and installed(not provided)forward cabin has locking door,not installed(taken down for interior work inside boat)fiberglass 15 gallon capacity water tank with electric faucet at sink,such is under V berth. settee on port side has rectangular table and room for 4 guests to sit around table top and base are removable,.all boat cushions are newly repholstered. galley on starboard side enough room to work with. tohatsu 6hp NEVER USEDoutboard it has alternator charging accesory.new in box traveller. trailer has 4 tires in great shape plus 2 new spares.

Calculations

5.3 kn
Classic: 5.7 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
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
14.2
<16: under powered
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
-
50.7
>40: stiffer, more 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
-
447.3
>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
-
28.4
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
- Capsize Screening
-
1.8
<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
Sold under different names as Sailstar Boats became Bristol Yachts. An inboard engine was available as an option. More than 750 built under both brands. Construction standards, methods and materials varied during this yachts production run. Some have balsa cored decks and the type of ballast may be lead (BRISTOL 24) or iron set in concrete (CORSAIR).
aka SAILSTAR CORSAIR.
(additional note 7/16)
Ballast was always meant to be 3000 lbs. even though it erroneously appears as a lower number in some documentation. (according to Clint Pearson the builder).
Thanks to ‘Bristol 24’ for providing corrections.
