1995 Santana 2023a in excellent condition. Includes 2022 Tohatsu Sail Pro 6 horse four stroke long shaft with alternator, new Ritchie compass, Humminbird sonar, and Raymarine autopilot. I have made extensive performance upgrades to the boat including a mast head spinnaker set up with pole and chute, a retractable bow sprit fitted with a mast head genoa on a roller furler, winches, traveler, adjustable back stay, and jib tracks with cars. I have also added hand rails and rebuilt the ballst tank. The trailer has new tires, bunks, and paint, and a rebuilt axel with bearing buddies. You can tow this boat with a car when the ballast tank is empty. She will launch in two feet of waterand is easy to rig.
Equipment: Fully battened Maine in good shape. Roller furling jib in excellent shape. Symetrical spinnaker in excellent shape. Roller furling genoa in fair shape. Retrctable bow sprit.
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, in part, on the SANTANA 23 D (1978), but capable of carrying 1300 lbs. of water ballast. (primarily to reduce trailering weight.)
Shown here is the ‘A’ version. Other versions include C (cruising?) and R (Racing?). R version features retractable sprit for asym. spin.
