Henderson 30 For Sale. Life circumstance have forced me to place the 1998 Henderson 30 for sale. The boat has been newly refurbished in 2024 with lots of new upgrades in 2024 and 2025. It is ready to race with new sails and a new bottom job, new running rigging and recently refurbished mast. The motor runs well and the lower unit was rebuilt in 2024 and added a thrust prop for better speed in strong currents. The trailer has had a full conversion to electric brakes with all new bearing and drums and a new rear axle. Lots of replacement and spare parts. Comes with two masts, two booms, two spin poles and two rudders. Both rudders have been refurbished. Sails maintained in climate control and dry. Boat stored in covered storage. The boat is priced to sell. It is currently located in Albuquerque NM avoiding the hurricane season in Texas and drying out after the spring season. For full price, will deliver to Houston, Corpus Christi, Denver, LA or anywhere within that radius from NM.

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)
The HENDERSON 30 features a masthead spinnaker with retractable, articulating sprit(prod), and a retractable outboard housing.
