1995 Rhodes 19 with fixed Keel and Trailer in Very Good Condition Ready to Sail, Main, Roller Furling Jib and Spinnaker with Pole Tohatsu 4 stroke 6HP Outboard Basic Boat Info Boat Name: Sam B Make: Rhodes Model: 19 Year: 1995 Condition: Used Category: Sail Builder: Stuart Marine Designer: Philip Rhodes Construction: Fiberglass Boat Hull ID: RSO102007J495 Has Hull ID: Yes Keel Type: Fin Keel Dimensions Length: 19 ft Length Overall: 19’2 ft Waterline Length: 17’9 ft Beam: 7 ft Max Draft: 3’3 ft Engines / Speed Engines: 1 Make: Tohatsu Model: 6 Fuel: Unleaded Engine Power: 6hp Type: Outboard Other Boat Class: Daysailers
Equipment: Hull, Deck Sails & Rigging Trailer. Topsides were painted red mid-2022. Hull below the waterline was painted at that time. Fin keel, and draws a little over 4 feet. Tohatsu 4-stroke 6hp outboard that was tuned in September 2024. 12 volt battery and a battery charger that connects to a 110 power outlet on the dock via an extension cord. The battery powers the automatic bilge pump. The battery, charger and bilge pump were installed in 2022. The main halyard, sheets, and furling line were replaced in 2022. Older mainsail in serviceable condition. The jib was replaced 4 years ago. The jib is on a CDI Flexible Furler. It has the original symmetrical spinnaker and spinnaker pole, and new rigging for the spinnaker was added in 2023. Manual bilge pump, and the rubber part inside was replaced 2 or 3 years ago. The masthead wind indicator was replaced in 2022. The Tiller Tamer was replaced in 2024. The 2 sheaves at the masthead were replaced in 2024. Anchor and rode. In the cuddy there is a large black drybag with red/green and white lights, all battery powered and clamp-on. There are West PFDs, the typical dark blue ones with yellow webbing.

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)
The RHODES 19 has it’s origins with HURRICANE class (1945) which was a molded plywood centerboarder with an open cockpit built by Allied Aviation Corp. Another builder, Palmer Scott, purchased a number of unfinished HURRICANE hulls, added a foredeck with cuddy cabin, and a fixed keel. This boat was sold as the SMYRNA. It was from the SMYRNA that Marscot Plastics made a plug for a fiberglass version. This was the boat that was later sold by O’Day Corp. as the RHODES 19.
There are keel and centerboard versions. The fixed keel version become the standard for class racing.
