The owner bought this boat in 2009
General condition and any additional information
This boat is designed for versatility and adventures almost anywhere. And always draws comments. She has been well-kept and is in excellent condition. A VW can easily pull the trailer, and it pulls very nicely. Sail, motor, or row; are all available. With the flat bottom, pull up on any shore and camp or explore. Sails great! 6 knots.
Will deliver within 250 miles.
Standard features
Fiberglass. Gaff-rigged. Flat Bottom, Swing Keel. The outboard motor is located in a well at the stern. Teak bench on both sides the entire length. Removable teak floorboards.
Foam sandwiched in the hull wont sink. Three reef points. Lots of storage space. Canoe bow and stern. Removable tiller-stainless steel mounts. Mast gallows. The mast is light and easily raised. Hinged door for toilet access. Trailerable.
Floats in 6 inches of water. Keel fully down - 3 feet of water.
Extra gear included
Life Jackets three, never used. Emergency equipment, fog horn, first aid kit, etc. Storage bins for under-bench storage. Boat hook. Flares. Trailer lock. Maniac reef line. Trailer straps. Angle gage.
Improvements to the hull, deck, rigging, engine, or interior
Brand new custom all-aluminum trailer (Rocket). In water once. Cost $2500. Included in the boat price.
Fresh water storage (12 gallons).
Oak rings from luff to the mast.
Stowable 10-foot aluminum collapsible oars with permanent oarlocks installed. Oar parts (3 each) are stored under the bench, starboard side.
Sea-anchor.
Cushions that cover all benches (sleeping foam) and center wood insert to make the forward deck flat for sleeping, gear, or lounging.
Four-horsepower Nissan outboard (less than 50 hours). External three-gallon fuel tank.
The total boat has always been covered or in covered storage, also a cockpit cover for trailering—wheel covers (new). Battery wired for nav lights. Battery case. Weather vane. US Flag mount. Tiller clutch.
Three mast stays (not factory). Four custom fenders (knotted professionally), white.
Stainless steel four-step portable ladder for swimming or kayak boarding. You can install or stow in five minutes. Extra prop (in box).
Tent enclosure (all canvas including covers are Sunbella canvas) connects both Biminis to create a camping tent with windows for sleeping. Forward Bimini, if used separately, becomes a cutty cabin for sleeping, etc. Privacy screen. All canvas, excellent shape-waterproofed.
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)
