Seller's Description
The 2011 Jeanneau 44i Performance, known as Moonraker, is a true gem for any sailing enthusiast seeking adventure on the water. Originally commissioned to the specifications of a renowned yacht builder and circumnavigator, this vessel was designed with both performance and comfort in mind. Moonraker has sailed extensively, from exploring the Mediterranean to crossing the Atlantic, cruising through the Caribbean and the Bahamas, and making her way along the Florida coast and into Mexico. Wherever shes ventured, the Jeanneau 44i has proven to be a reliable and versatile sailing companion. Meticulously maintained and lovingly cared for, Moonraker stands out as a performance cruiser ready for open water or coastal cruising. Her custom keel draws just 56″, providing excellent stability and flexibility for navigating shallower waters. The performance mast has been thoughtfully shortened to be ICW-friendly, and new rigging throughout, making her a perfect choice for exploring inland waterways. Whether youre planning to cross oceans or enjoy weekend getaways, the Jeanneau 44i ensures a smooth and enjoyable experience.
With a legacy of resilience and elegance, the 2011 Jeanneau 44i Performance embodies the ideal balance between seaworthiness and luxury. Designed for long-term voyaging, she offers all the features needed for extended journeys, including spacious living quarters and the equipment required for serious bluewater cruising. From her history of transatlantic crossings to her adventures along the Gulf Coast, the Jeanneau 44i is more than just a sailboatits a lifestyle. If youre seeking a vessel with a proven track record and modern upgrades, Moonraker is an excellent choice to embark on your next journey.

Calculations

10.0 kn
Classic: 8.21 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
-
22.1
>20: high performance
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
-
29.8
<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
-
184.4
100-200: light
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
-
24.3
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
-
2.1
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising
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
