Seller's Description

Standard features

Fully equipped live-aboard cruiser ready to circumnavigate Solar panels, wind generator, new rig, new electrics, new batteries, new power inverter. Too many new items to list This boat is owned by a professional yacht captain, and fully maintained as only they know how.Yanmar 75 engine.

Summary of work carried out on, and improvements made to, Beneteau Oceanis 473, s/v Further during ownership for the past four years.

Externally, New Selden mast installed Nov. 2019, and all new standing rigging, along with new Furlex 304s genoa furler, new Selden Rodkicker rigid vang. New Dyneema main, genoa 1, genoa 2, spinnaker halyards, and topping lift. Full contingent of new mast LED lights, along with LED white/blue spreader-mounted downlighters. Installed an Atlantic Towers stern arch constructed of 2” schedule 80 heavy duty aluminium tubing. This has allowed me to install 460 watts of solar panels, a 400 watt wind turbine, and dingy-lifting davits. 2018 Modified the bimini cover to enable installation of sun blinds across the whole aft end of the cover, as well as around part of the side. 2018 Replaced the acrylic ‘windscreen’ across the forward end of the coachroof enabling significant improvement of light in saloon. 2018 Replaced two deck hatches due to crazing of acrylic and damage. 2019 Repaired, or replaced with new, the stainless steel pulpit, all lifeline stanchions, and stanchion gates, and installed all new, professionally fabricated, lifelines. 2018 Replaced anchor chain with 155ft of new 10mm Aqua 7 high-test chain. 2020 Replaced the Quick anchor windlass hand-control. 2019 Replaced four Spinlock rope clutches for lines running on coachroof. 2020 Installed teak wood to cockpit floor. 2019 Isinglass see-through windows replaced in spray hood. 2021 Replaced Raymarine autopilot control at helm as screen of old unit unreadable. 2022 Replaced Yanmar engine panel at helm as screen of old panel unreadable. 2022 Internally, Replaced fresh-water pressure pump. 2020 Installed bilge pump float switch. 2020 Replaced three ventilation fans with new in pullman bunk cabin and saloon. 2021 Replaced mixer tap unit at galley sink with stainless steel fitting. 2020 Installed new house battery bank of 4 x Trojan T105 golf-cart batteries. 2021 Installed Blue Sea SI-ACR battery bank charge combiner to charge house and engine-start batteries. 2021 Installed new 85amp alternator on Yanmar engine. 2020 Installed new starter motor of Yanmar engine. 2020 Replaced 1000 watt 110 volt inverter with Kisae 2000 watt unit, and upgraded electrical wiring size appropriately. 2022 I carried out a haulout four weeks ago for bottom anti-fouling painting, zinc anode replacement, and had the topsides buffed. Paint around hull port-lights was renewed.

The replacement and improvement programme continues, and I will be replacing the mixer taps in each of the bathrooms during the next week.

Calculations

Hull Speed
10.8 kn
Classic: 8.41 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

10.84 knots
Classic formula: 8.41 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
17.5
16-20: good performance

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.
17.52
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
35.8
<40: less stiff, less 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

35.79
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
153.2
100-200: light

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
153.22
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
23.1
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
23.14
<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
2.0
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising

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
2.02
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
