Seller's Description

2006 LEOPARD 40’ CATAMARAN 50% PARTNERSHIP.Seeking Catamaran Ownership Partner (Limited Use) Are you a sailing enthusiast who loves the freedom of the open water but doesnt want the full commitment of owning a boat? Are you not familiar with sailing but would just like to spend some time on the water on a spacious yacht? Im seeking a partner to share occasional use of my beautiful 2006 Leopard 40 Catamaran sailboat, centrally based in Alamitos Bay Marina, Long Beach. If youve been shopping catamarans, you know how expensive they are. Heres an opportunity to share a catamaran for a fraction of buying your own. If youve shopped catamarans, the other issue is finding a slip and I already did the wait list and have a slip in the very desirable Alamitos Bay Marina, walking distance to great shopping and restaurants with hassle free parking. Typically catamarans are relegated to a side tie at the end of a long dock. Our slip is located in the first slot on the dock making it as close as possible to parking and allowing for ease in loading and in spotting guests! Whats on Offer: Ease of buy in as the boat is already an LLC. Circumvent all the costs of broker, surveys and haul outs needed to purchase on your own. Everythings been done! Flexible Schedule: Ideal for someone who would only use the boat occasionally (1-2 weekends per month or similar) Hassle-Free Sailing: I can do the majority of maintenance myself saving thousands. Financial Obligations: Buy in for 50% would be $120,000. 50% of slip, taxes, insurance, monthly bottom clean 50% of maintenance costs, as much as possible DIY by me TBD Supplies and fuel as needed/used This is a great opportunity to enjoy the perks of hanging out on the water or sailing on a beautiful spacious yacht without the full-time responsibility. If interested, please reach out with a bit about your expectations and interests and how often you’d like to use the boat. Lets chart a course for a mutually beneficial partnership! Contact: Dennis 714-369-4060 call or text.

Equipment: Fully Equipped Sailing Catamaran: Perfect for entertaining friends at the dock, for day trips, weekend getaways, or relaxed cruising to Catalina, sleeps 6 very comfortably! Includes two heads and showers, refrigerator/freezer, dingy with outboard for cruising the bay or cruising at your destination.

Calculations

Hull Speed
?

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

?
Classic formula: ?
Sail Area/Displacement
?

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.
?
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
?

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

?
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
?

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
?
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
?

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
?
<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
?

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