Seller's Description

Compac 23, 1979 mk1 - $1,800 This great looking Compac 23 is named Bonnie Jean. Built in 1979, she is hull #21 and is 23’ in length. Compac 23’s are very well respected trailer sailors and there is a ton of information about their capabilities listed online. I’ve owned, docked and sailed her for the past 8 years out of Lake Pontchartrain in Louisiana. The boat has a clear title and registration in my name. I’m selling her now as I have recently moved to Virginia and I no longer have nearby water access. When I relocated, I was in the process of doing some maintenance, which I was not able to fully complete before the move. The maintenance was to beautify the exterior and to remove and repair some interior wood damaged by a small deck leak from a bolt connecting a bimini rail to the deck. The hard work is done, she is rock solid and there is zero rot, although there is still about 20% of the work remaining to make her prefect. There are a ton of new and spare parts and equipment included: Custom dual axle sailboat trailer with new wheels and tires, new wheel bearings and inner/outer races in all four hubs, tire covers and new LED trailer lights 2006 6hp Tohatsu 4-stroke long shaft outboard motor. New carburetor installed two years ago. Motor is in excellent mechanical condition, starts on the first pull and has been incredibly reliable during my ownership. Full complement of spare motor parts, service manual and owner’s manual included Standing rigging in good shape. Included is an entire set of replacement standing rigging from a Compac 23 sister ship Newly painted bottom within the last 4 months. Extra bottom paint included. Newly painted non-skid on fore-deck and cabin roof. Two main sails - the primary is in good shape, the other is ok for a backup One 160% Genoa – in good shape One 110% foresail – in good shape One 90% foresail – in good shape Full set of cabin cushions that are in great condition Newer fuel tank and fuel lines All halyards and lines included, plus spares Partial reel of new halyard line included New Ritchie compass included All teak bright work included Anchor and anchor rode. New reel of anchor rode included 3X inflatable life jackets 4X large fenders Spare rudder and rudder post Spare front and rear rails New reel of rub rail included, enough to do the entire boat 4X spare stanchions included Many additional miscellaneous spares also included

She is currently on her trailer in Pineville, LA and is ready to go to a new owner. If you’re interested, please email me your questions and I’ll reply back to you or you can email me your phone number and a good time to contact you and I’ll call you then to answer any questions that you have.

Calculations

Hull Speed
7.7 kn
Classic: 6.03 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

7.73 knots
Classic formula: 6.03 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
16.2
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.
16.21
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
46.2
>40: stiffer, more 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

46.24
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
156.0
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
156.03
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
13.7
<20: lightweight racing boat

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
13.65
<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
2.2
>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
2.2
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
