2013 Com-Pac Picnic Cat sail boat in excellent shape for sale! Ready for the water! Take the whole family sailing, the beach, camping, fishing and more! This cat boat is very roomy, wide and stable with lots of storage space. Very easy to tow, rig, launch and sail single hand. Great for inexperienced sailors who want to learn or experienced sailors who want to maximize and simplify their time on the water. It has a hinged mast that can be raised and lowered with very little effort in less than a minute (great when going under low canal bridges). It is very light, so it can be towed with pretty much any vehicle with a hitch. It also has a swing keel, so it can be beached in shallow water! Extras include bimini top with slide track, transom boarding ladder, sail cover, galvanized trailer, outboard mount, anchor with bow mount, mast and boom gallows. I’m also including a 5hp Lehr propane 4 stroke long shaft outboard with forward and reverse. It starts and runs like new as you can see here in this video: https://youtu.be/FpiQ9Z0Uwf8
Title and registration in hand and ready to transfer. The trailer (1 7/8” hitch) is in excellent shape and is ready for the road.
Boat Specs: Length: 14’ Width: 6.5’ Weight: 500 lbs Draft centerboard up: 1/2’ Draft centerboard down: 3.16’
These boats with trailer, accessories and taxes run for about $17,000 with a long 18 month lead time wait. Take this one home and go sailing today for $8,500 cash, which is about half off regular price! Price is low, cash and very firm! You will not find a better, nicer one for less! Title in hand. Cash only - no checks or trades!
Serious buyers please call (no texts!) (8l3) four four four 85-85 when you’re ready to come pick it up. Calling is the only way to reach me. Text messages and emails will be ignored. The boat is in Fort Myers, between Naples and Sarasota.
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)
Stainless Steel Centerboard.
