1977 Pearson 365 Ketch (hull #120) Recent $15k yard work repairing corroded main mast step, new roller furling, and all new standing rigging. Brand new main and mizzen (full batten) from Fareast sails. Bon Temps is a reliable boat that can really move with some fresh breeze. Federally registered, Bon Temps is ready to sail away. She is complete; however, she retains much of her original equipment. Westerbeke 40 runs strong and does not smoke. Leaks oil through the rear seal (common on “westerleaks”). Engine has been rebuilt at least once and does not appear to be in need of replacement any time soon. Paragon transmission that does what is asked of it. Original wiring and fuses - works but needs replacement updating. LectraSan head - no pumpouts! Cosmetically, the cabin interior is clean with no major issues. Freshwater system needs new piping. Exterior - hull and topsides could use a repainting. Bon Temps has been a great family day-sailer / weekender but kids and family commitments compete with needed work that was intended to be done on her. A solid hull / platform and a beauty under sail, everyone wants to talk to you when you pull into your slip for the evening. Currently in-water in Rock Hall, MD. Dry winterstorage in Rock Hall, MD paid for the Nov.’22 to April ‘23.
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)
