Trinket has a blue hull and white topsides with blue and purple sails, She is a truly distinctive Pocket cruiser any port. Roller furling Jib and Mainsail Stack Pack with lazy Jacks means less time and effort and more time sailing. High-performance well-balanced kick-up HDPE rudder is easy on the Helmsman. 5 HP Tohatsu outboard starts easily and pushes Trinket at around 4.5 Knots.. Humminbird dragonfly 4 GPS/fish finder with inland lake charts. 5 gallon freshwater tank with hand pump faucet. 70 watts of solar with an mppt controller and two deep cycle house batteries have always kept up with Trinket’s moderate electrical needs, and the shore power connection and onboard 2 bank charger are great for dockside or winter storage. There are many USB outlets inside the cabin and in the cockpit, as well as two 12v automotive sockets for plenty of charging access. LED cabin and navigation lights draw only about 1.5 amps. Folding Bimini and dodger (currently not installed but with all hardware still in place for attachment) plus an alternate removable hardtop canopy with room for about 400 Watts of solar. All lines lead to the cockpit and makes Trinket a breeze to single-hand. Lifting keel with removable dyneema lines for less cabin clutter. Removable teak cockpit and cabin sole grating keeps feet dry and looks good. The custom companionway steps offer stowage underneath, and the original teak ladder and hardware is available as well. Automatic bilge pump on an independent battery circuit. Danforth style anchor with 15 ft chain and 150 ft of rope with bow roller, chain stopper, and hanging bracket. There is an additional anchor chain pipe and rode at stern for a small lunch hook anchor in place. Cabin and cockpit cushions in good shape, all canvas in good shape. The Baja trailer with LED lighting and Buddy bearings makes launching from a ramp a simple matter, and it all fits in a 24 garage, so storage is simple and inexpensive. Trinket can be rigged and sailing in less than an hour with only one person, additional help makes the work go much quicker. Trinkets hard chine

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)
aka POTTER 19.
An earlier version was the HMS 18.
