Seller's Description

This is a beautiful owner version of the celebrated Catana 471. The consummate blue water, performance cat. She has very high freeboard and bridge-deck clearance for comfortable, safe offshore work; dagger-boards for windward performance; carbon rig with stainless shrouds and forestay for reliability; a high-tech hull constructed of PVC foam core/vinyl-ester resin with carbon and kevlar reinforcements provides the ideal combination of stiffness, strength and light weight.

“4 TALES” is a two owner yacht that has never chartered. It spent most of its career in the dry climate of California and was recently moved to Georgia by its current owners. It has had very light use in the last three years and the owners have made some significant upgrades. Most notably, a Leisure Furl in-boom mainsail was installed in 2018 to facilitate sail handling. The headsail inventory includes two genoas, a screecher and two spinnakers (symmetric and asymmetric). The rod headstay was replaced in September 2020 and the two shrouds in March 2021. The trampoline was just replaced in January 2021 and the Mast has recently been painted.

This yacht features 110V and 12V systems and equipment. A large solar array and large alternators power the amenities on board including a large water-maker, washer/dryer, and new electronics throughout.

4 TALES is ready to go cruising to the Bahamas, Caribbean or further. She is US flagged and duty paid. A gorgeous cat that combines distinguished pedigree with true oceanic capability.

Calculations

Hull Speed
12.3 kn
Classic: 9.02 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

12.31 knots
Classic formula: 9.02 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
21.3
>20: high 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.
21.32
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
?

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

?
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
127.3
100-200: light

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
127.26
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
11.7
<20: lightweight racing 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
11.66
<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
3.4
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising

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
3.39
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

SA:
Mainsail area: 78 to 91m2
Genoa area: 28 to 52 m2
Gennaker: 82 m²
