The owner bought this boat in 1996
General condition and any additional information
Really waited to long to sell…this was my dream boat that I had just the way I wanted at one time…just can’t use it…and it needs some love, I can’t give anymore.
Standard features
Solid glass hull built in Ft LAUDERDALE by Parkin Marine,has a very low hour yanmar 2gm 18hp diesel engine ,harken roller furling, sail are in good shape and a lightly used cruising chute with sock.ice box refrigerated,has been at my dock for the last 5 years due to my unable to go in the sun because of melanoma cancer…
Extra gear included
One anchor, dock lines, engine manual
Improvements to the hull, deck, rigging, engine, or interior
Boat need a refit since the last time I did it was 1999…this is a great deal for a fine shallow draft (3”6’) boat.needs a bottom job yesterday…..this boat is a registered antique in Florida….registration is 5 bucks a year.
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)
Probably an earlier version of the HERRESHOFF 38 CAT KETCH.
