Seller's Description

1995 Hunter 26 Sailboat and trailer. Freshwater boat until this year. Lightweight with fiberglass swing keel and water ballast. Mast can be easily raised and lowered single handed with included gin pole. Can float in 2 feet of water for easy beach access. Sleeps 4 adults easily. Has wider cabin than most sailboats this size due to no walkways, as you walk over top of boat to get to front. Has onboard battery charger and shore power cord. No head, but separate room for port a potty. Upgrading to larger boat. Has 8 hp Tohatsu with remote throttle and gear selector. Everything works great and ready to sail. Has roller furler and Harkin roller on main. 2 winches. See pictures for specifications. Trailer is in good shape ready to pull. Has extendable tongue for ease of launch. Not quite 6 ft headroom but has sliding sunroof and pop up top. Has alcohol stove and 2 sinks. Bimini top on back. Anchor storage up front. No leaks. Has spinnaker sail also. Has never had bottom paint as was freshwater boat, always trailered until 5 13 22. Bottom is in great shape. Would need bottom paint if kept in saltwater longterm. Currently located in Pensacola FL in wetslip. I’m available to show most weekends . Is currently registered in Alabama which does not issue titles for boats but Florida will issue new title if transferred there. Have copies of Title for boat and trailer. Nada says worth 14-16k. Asking 10k due to no bottom paint. Would cost 1500 for bottom paint done by marina, but doesnt need if you trailer it.

Calculations

Hull Speed
8.1 kn
Classic: 6.45 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

8.12 knots
Classic formula: 6.45 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
16.8
16-20: good 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.
16.83
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
43.5
>40: stiffer, more 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

43.46
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
165.3
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
165.29
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
15.8
<20: lightweight racing boat

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
15.83
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
2.2
>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
2.16
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

Water ballast model.(Water stays in place for sailing and pumped out for trailering.)
Replaced by the HUNTER 260 which is very similar.
