Up for sale is my 2009 Melges MC Scow racing sailboat. This boat is a championship winning boat that was competitive when I purchased it. Too busy to use and really would like to get a daysailer instead. These boats are very fast and a whole different animal than a sunfish or laser. They are also over $25,000 new. The boat comes with Race sail and practice sail Multiple boat covers Mast cover Rudder bag Sailboat specific tie downs for trailering Spare tire for the trailer Dry bags Spare hatches and parts Mast float Paddle Various other odds and ends - everything you need to start competing at one of the many local sailing clubs! The trailer is an all aluminum Trailex trailer with brand new radial tires and new taillights. I am asking $9500 cash for everything. These boats are not cheap and this one is in very good shape. If you have any questions, just ask! or phone (972) 971 -nine-four-seven-seven
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)
Based on the J SCOW of the the mid-1950’s. (Designed and built by John O. Johnson). Significantly updated by Melges.
