Good condition.
This boat has placed well racing at our club. Many wins at the club. The boat is ready to race and race configured/upgraded over the last 5 years.
Sails in good condition (Mad); new North Sails spinnaker last season, used a handful of times. All racing needs have been installed.
The hull is white, no bottom paint.
Trailer in good working order.
The boat has a mast-up cover with #611 embroidered.
Great boat to get into racing and be competitive at the club level. My wife and I got our start in Flying Scots with this boat. The boat was meticulously restored by a retired army veteran at Saratoga Lake before becoming ours. The centerboard trunk and floor are solid. The starboard floor was re-cored. The deck is solid.
I am not certain of the manufacturer.
We have owned the boat for 3 seasons. We have raced the boat in Connecticut for 3 summers.
The boat has been dry sailed and stored indoors during the winter.
We have purchased a newer Flying Scot and hope someone else will continue sailing/racing 611. The boat has been great to us and hope someone else can enjoy her.
The boat is in Westport, CT but can also be seen in Clifton Park, NY with advanced notice.
Photos available upon request.
Asking price: $3,000

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)
