All AGM batteries (3-8D Lifeline house, 2 Lifeline Group 34 thruster, 1 Engine, 1 Genset). All systems that have saltwater run through them are flushed with freshwater and salt-away after each use, even the ACs.

List of major items: Yanmar 4JH3HTE 100 HP turbo diesel with 1120 hours Dripless packing Fischer Panda 5kw genset with 992 hours Dual Marine Air AC units Vacuflush heads Furuno radar/chartplotter Sidepower bowthruster Webasto hydronic diesel heater with dual zones Harken self-tailing winches Robertson Autopilot with aft deck remote (helm is inside but remote allows for steering from outside) 175 watt flexible solar panel and charger 300ft of all chain for main anchor

I have documentation on just about everything including a complete survey from 2014.

Things that need attention: Teak trim and toe rail could use some brightening/oil Lower teak rub rails need some work Starboard side paint around the mid hull has worn through to the gelcoat due to fenders rubbing Tender is a 2021 Zodiac with a 2.5 Suzuki 4 stroke and Saltwater trolling motor.

Here is a fellow owner’s website that cruised their Freeport extensively: https://slipaway.net/ Additional pictures available upon request. Boat is located in Portsmouth NH. Asking $89,900.

Calculations

Hull Speed
8.1 kn
Classic: 7.64 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

8.11 knots
Classic formula: 7.64 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
19.9
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.
19.91
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
31.8
<40: less stiff, less 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

31.82
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
285.8
275-350: heavy

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
285.76
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
31.1
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising 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
31.11
<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
1.9
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

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
1.88
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

45’ LOA including bowsprit.
Derived from the ISLANDER 40MS, (originally designed by Charles Davies, also built by Cheoy Lee??). Updated with interior re-design by Robert Perry.
