Seller's Description

The Catalina 380 is designed to incorporable sailing performance with a high standard of cruising comfort. Named Boat of the year 1997 by Cruising World Magazine, a testament to Catalina quality. Numerous opening hatches make the interior modern, light and airy. Destiney handles well, is responsive and easy to sail. The double-spreader rig with an inboard shroud base allows for narrow sheeting angles and large genoas. The cockpit is extremely comfortable with good all round viability with all sailing lines leading aft. The deck is well thought out with recessed anchor locker, electric windlass with foot switch and a sturdy anchor roller, midship cleats and stainless steel grab handles on the cabin roof. A swim platform with ladder gives easy access into water. Destiney has been meticulously maintained by her current owners. She is in Florida and ready to go on her next adventure to the Caribbeans.

Accommodations includes 6 berths in 2 cabins. There is full standing (6ft ) headroom and good ventilation throughout. The forepeak has the traditional V berth with wash sink to port and hanging lockers to starboard. Fwd of the bunk behind a wooden panel is access to anchor locker. Moving aft the saloon has the drop-leaf table down the centre-line and full length comfortable settees with storage and bookshelves above and below to port and starboard. The L shaped galley lies to port with three burner gimballed cooker with grill (broiler) and oven, a front and top opening refrigerator - 6 Cu.ft., plenty of galley cabinets and two stainless steel sinks with pressurized hot and cold water.. The owners cabin aft is highlighted by the oversize double berth, with numerous storage bins and lockers within arms reach. Two separate dressing areas, each with upholstered seat and hanging locker.

Calculations

Hull Speed
8.5 kn
Classic: 7.68 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

8.53 knots
Classic formula: 7.68 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
15.5
<16: under powered

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.
15.46
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
37.4
<40: less stiff, less 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

37.43
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
246.5
200-275: moderate

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
246.51
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
30.5
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising 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
30.54
<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
1.8
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

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
1.83
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising
