1977 Ranger 33 sailboat. Cleanest the most upgrades Ranger 33 you will ever find. Fully setup for off-grid sailing any time of the year. This boat is a fast cruiser. It can go head to had with newer bigger boats 40feet plus. And it sails faster than its PHRF rating. Its also a very forgiving and safe boat.

Moored in Shilshole and comes with a slip
Equipment: New Ivars Dodger Engine: Yanmar 3GM30F. Great condition. Oil changed a few months ago. Starts each time. Has an intake heater for super easy winter starts. Flexofold 3 blade propeller. Almost no drag while sailing but still great under power and even in reverse. Stove/Heat: Wallas diesel stove top that doubles as a thermostat heater Very efficient/insulated refrigerator. Works great with solar power. Water: Pressurized water in Galley and Head. dual tanks 20G and 10G Holding tank: 20G Fuel: dual diesel 20G and a 3G day tank Batteries: 2 banks. House deep cycle and a big starter battery. Victron battery monitor. Solar power: 150Watts of solar panels with Victron MPPT charge controller. Power inverter: 3000 watts Stereo: 4 speakers with subwoofer and amplifier. Plenty of sound for a sailing party (Optional) Cannon: 12 gouge shotgun blanks.
Raymarine Autopilot: Automatically keeps a desired angle to the wind or GPS course.
Bottom of the boat is perfectly smooth. Absolutely no blisters. Bottom was completely refinished with Interlux 2000e and a layer of epoxy about 10 years ago. Still has lots of anti fouling paint. You can go a few years without painting the bottom.
Sails: Northsails triradial 130 furling headsail. Perfect condition Older 130 headsail. Still decent condition. 110 Jib, older but in good condition 155 headsail good condition Northsaild Main. Perfect condition Full symmetrical spinnaker. Older has patches but still works and looks great.
Stainless Steal Anchor and chain. Harkent Furler headsail. Dinghy davits.
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)
On later boats, wheel steering became standard and a Universal diesel was offered as an option.
