Located in Middle River, MD.
Rare shoal draft version cruiser in great shape. 6” longer and wider than the previous MK2. December 2021 survey shows “Above Average” condition. ** No wet/soft spots. Many updates / upgrades since I purchased the boat. Boat sat unused 2018-2021 since previous owner upgraded to a larger boat. Fuel tank cleaned, fuel polished, and access port installed 2022. Selling due to lack of use. See equipment list below for full description of work on my watch.
Equipment: **2014 Quantum Fusion MX main, 150,135 clean and in pristine shape. North Asymmetrical chute in turtle bag with pole. **Keel faired. **Newer 2014 cushions (virtually unused). **Custom cockpit cushions. **Dodger stitched and supports added. **Westerbeke W18 with 1226 hours. **Bacon Lazy Bag **New Weems and Plath Clock and Barometer. **New LED lighting, and brass fixtures. ** 2023 items: new SS shaft, packing, cutlass and three blade prop, and exhaust elbow. **Keel faired. **2023 Raymarine Axiom 7 Plotter, Fusion Stereo and Bose Speakers, new portlights and screens. Raymarine Autohelm, wind, speed and depth. New teak drink holder at pedistal (wheel drive and chains greased when apart). Recent Raritan head, chrome dorades, adjustable Jenny cars on track. Included are: Custom boarding ladder, and teak cockpit table and winter cover (never deployed by me, looks good).
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)
