Overview : Carpe Marinus (Latin for Seize the Sea) is a 2008 Seaward 32RK. She was manufactured in Largo Florida by Nick Hake of Hake Yachts. The model is a popular thin water cruiser due to her vertically retracting keep which enables entry into shallow water areas while not sacrificing sailing performance when needing to head to windward.
History This vessel was originally commissioned by Sloop Sailor Girl and sailed on the Indian River on Floridas east coast. After many years the vessel was sold to a Canadian couple that spent time sailing her (Flyin D) full time around the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean. They had her transported across Mexico to Puerto Vallarta where she was eventually sold to a Californian who used her as a vacation getaway, naming her Flyin H. The current owner purchased her in Mexico and had her hauled to TN where she was christened Carpe Marinus. After a year in TN she was hauled to Cape Coral, FL where she currently resides.
Reason for Selling : The large family outgrew the monohull and has since purchased a catamaran.

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)
