Seller's Description
15K PRICE DROP! Sea Byrds has been well maintained with many upgrades for extensive cruising. Her design combines high performance sailing with easy living, whether you are a daysailer, racer, island hopper, or all three!
Please note that she will need upgraded sails, bimini, and solar panels because of the recent storm. The latest price improvement reflects this. All photos were taken prior to the storm.
Deck & Cockpit:
Above decks, Sea Byrds is both functional and sleek, with stainless steel accents throughout. Her cockpit has abundant comfortable seating, a well-positioned helm station, and a sugar scoop transom that makes those Caribbean waters that much easier to dive into. The entertainment possibilities here are many- the fold out center table forward of the helm has room for dining and, or course, happy hour!
Below Decks:
Moving down below, the spacious, accommodating galley is to port, with the aft head and Navigation Station to starboard. The head can be accessed from the salon and the aft stateroom. Being an Owners Edition Legend, her aft stateroom is expansive, with multiple ports for air flow and light.
Her main salon is full of light and uniquely her own, with custom interior design touches that are cheerful and well done throughout. The settees on each side are perfect for lounging, and the table folds and expands to accommodate different needs.
Towards the bow, the V Berth can comfortably sleep two adults, with ample storage and access to the forward head.

Calculations

9.4 kn
Classic: 7.97 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
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
16.5
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.
- Ballast/Displacement
-
35.0
<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
- Displacement/Length
-
202.4
200-300: 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
- Comfort Ratio
-
29.1
20-30: coastal cruiser
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
- 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
