Savory is a solid bluewater steel cutter built in Victoria, BC. She is designed after Bernard Moitessier’s famous ‘Joshua’ and by the same builder as ‘Tamata’ including steel design, bubble and tiller/wheel attachment. She has sailed from BC to Hawai’i in 2014 and multiple trips from Victoria to Haida Gwaii. Savory is a safe, efficient, industrial yet comfortable “work boat” perfect for adventures and expeditions to Alaska, Mexico and beyond. We bought Savory off the original owner in 2021 but are looking to sell her as we need more cabins (and comfort, like a shower!) for our growing family. Can deliver anywhere along the BC Coast.
Equipment: 4 burner propane oven, Dickinson diesel heater, Waeco 12 volt refrigerator, 25kg Vulcan anchor, new Gala Hypalon 7ft dinghy with Johnson Seahorse outboard engine, 50 gallon fresh water bladder, 2 stainless steel fuel tanks, VHF, hand held compass, Furuno radar, 2 mainsails including one brand new Zoom 3 reef point/full batten, roller furling genoa, jib, staysail, drifter, gennaker and sock, storm sail, new indoor cusheons, certified life raft offshore windvane and new Raymarine autopilot (still in box). Salt water hand pump and foot pump fresh water taps (plus spares). Hauled out and hull painted July 2024. Dry bilge. Spray foamed to water line. Engine rebuilt at 1000 hours. Please contact for more information. Whatsapp: 672-324-2833 or louisgoethals@gmail.com
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)
