This 1985 Little Harbor is one that truly needs to be seen to be appreciated. Exterior, interior, power, electronics, and sails, all top-of-the-line and in great shape. She has been restored to, and in many cases improvedto, its original condition.
The exterior of the hull has a beautiful offwhite finish with fresh copper colored bottom paint. No nicks or scratches.
The propeller is replaced with a Maxprop 3-bladed feathering bronze prop. The cost for one of these props is approximately $5000. Many consider it the best available and is in keeping with virtually everything else on this boat.
Topside, you will find four 340 watt solar panels. Below there are two 100-150 Victron charge controllers and Xantrax 3000 watt inverter/charger. All this energy is stored in 8 Firefly G31 112AH house batteries with a 140 amp Ballard house alternator and with Mc618 programmable regulator. There is 1 separate G31 starting battery.
There are two staterooms, 1 fore and 1 aft each with its own head and lots of room. The main salon holds a very well thought out nav/com station with Garmin electronics, a sat phone plus VHF radio.
Midship there is a very comfortable U-couch with middle table. This can be be easily converted to a large double berth. The galley has everything needed for preparing snacks or gourmet meals. It has a sink, stove, oven, microwave, counter space and lots of refrigeration in 2 separate compartments.
For propulsion without sails, the 1995 Westerbeke engine with 82 HP will get the job done.
The list of necessary equipment along with numerous features for convenience and comfort is too long to list in detail.
Another big plus is that this vessel is set up for single man operation.
Must see to appreciate.

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)
