The owner bought this boat in 2001
Standard features
Hunter 260, 2001, fresh water only, salon refitted with semi-permanent V-berth, and drop-leaf table with additional locker space, complete with 5 year old 9.8 Tohatsu motor, trailer (4 new tires), Titan brake actuator, gin pole (for stepping mast), mast cradle, custom vinyl winter cover, main and jib sails (320sf), full rigging, tiller with swinging centerboard and rudder (centerboard and rudder replaced 2010 with solid HDPE components), water ballasted keel, danforth anchor (with 150’ rode + 15’ chain), cockpit bimini, original sail cover, hard-wired Garmin GPS/sounder, hand held VHF with charging station, (30A) 120V shore power with breaker panel and four duplex outlets, 12V system with 12V battery (two potential) and two auxiliary outlets, and solar recharge panel, and nav lighting, 20 gal fresh water tank with two hand pumps and two sinks, chemical toilet, salon butane stove, cockpit LP grille, large cooler (wired for potential 12V refrigerator)
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)
Water ballast model (for ease of trailering - tanks remain full for sailing).
Based on the earlier HUNTER 26.
