This boat is a rare find on the Northeast coast, but it suits her well. As an iconic Robert Perry designed double-ender, she handles these waters superbly since she was built for bluewater world cruising.
This beauty stands above the competition since she has had an engine upgrade and the teak decks have been removed!!
This boat is essentially the same boat as a Hans Christian or a Tayana but built at a different Taiwan shipyard (the Union Shipyard, hence the name Union Polaris). These hulls were built rugged and designed and built to handle any sea.
She has a full complement of sails that will last for many years. Her worm-gear steering is bullet proof and when tied to the autopilot or wind vane, this boat can put some miles on without tiring the crew.
Her electric windlass is recent and her 300 feet of chain rode will handle most any anchorage. The Trojan batteries are two years old and her electric head is beloved by the seller for its ease of use.
She has a woodstove for winter and an air conditioner (hardly used here in New England) for summer. Her solar panels mounted on the arch easily keep the batteries charged.
Don’t wait too long to arrange a showing on this one. The seller has purchased his new boat and is very motivated.
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)
According to designer, Robert Perry, the HANS CHRISTIAN 36, MARINER POLARIS, UNION POLARIS 36, and EO 36 are all nearly the same, which, in turn, are lengthened versions of the HANS CHRISTIAN 34, the boat he was originally commissioned to design but, of which, few were built.
(previously listed here as UNION POLARIS 36).
