The Whitehall Spirit 14 Sailing rowboat It handles crisply due to the large kick-up rudder. Boat speed can easily be maintained for smooth tacking in light airs, in spite of the long tracking keel. The jib is useful in heavy winds when the main can be dropped, rolled on the boom, and stowed inside the boat next to the gunnel. The centerboard trunk containing the solid cast bronze centerboard The conversion back to a traditional row boat or sail boat takes only minutes. This sailing rowboat is perfect if you want to travel long distances, explore coastal waters, lakes, or rivers, or if you would simply like the best of the best. Needing only 6 inches of water with the keel and rudder fully retracted, it can tuck into quiet, unexplored, and uncrowded spots. Its also easily beachable for when you want to explore shorelines. the row boat can be converted to a sliding seat system -contact manufacturer
Equipment: Complete boat fiberglass hull, bilge drain/plug, 2 fixed seat rowing stations,4 pivoting bronze ore clips, 2 sets of ores, kick-up rudder, Spruce mast, boom and lug, mainsail, jib, sailing gear The jib is useful in heavy winds when the main can be dropped, rolled on the boom, and stowed inside the boat next to the gunnel. The mainsail on the standing lug style rig can be tacked with full control using only the mainsheet. It can also be reefed or lowered completely to enable rowing stainless steel keel strip is is included The mainsail on the standing lug style rig can be tacked with full control using only the mainsheet. It can also be reefed or lowered completely to enable rowing, this is useful if the wind drops completely so you can row home using regular traditional oars. Includes trailer

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)
