Seller's Description
Ramandu was purchased 6 years ago and has been refit with a YAMAHA 9.9 high thrust outboard with electric start for easy sailing. She has a wide selection of electronics, comparable to big boats, for her size to support cruising.
She is in excellent shape and is the shallow draft, fixed lead keel version, with outboard (this boat did not have an inboard from the factory).
Equipment: Bluetooth stereo, VHF Marine radio, ST 4000 auto tiller, solar panel, solar panel regulator, ST Wind, Speed, and Depth, etc., two batteries (one house and one engine). We have regularly hauled her (every year) for new bottom paint, storage, and cleaning. Ramandu is in good structural shape, the sails and cushions have been indoor kept and the interior is clean and dry and offers quality cruising amenities.
On Deck, Ramandu has a sturdy bowsprit with anchor roller, oversized Harken roller furling system, and Harken self-tailing winches with lazy jacks for the mainsail. All lines run to the cockpit for easy single handed sailing: two halyards, lazy jacks, topping lift, and mainsheet run aft. Rigging is all harken and good condition. All brightwork was just completed, October 2022. We have a spinnaker, two jibs (100 and 150), and main.
The Galley has a portable two burner stove, large sink basin with a manual hand pump and new water pressure pump with a separate new faucet that includes a removable spray head. An ice-box is next to the sink. The versatile salon has comfortable seating for 4 and can be converted to additional berth. There are 6 opening ports for ventilation.

Calculations
- Hull Speed

8.3 kn
Classic: 6.14 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
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
21.9
>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.
- Ballast/Displacement
-
33.3
<40: less stiff, less powerful
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
- Displacement/Length
-
130.2
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
- Comfort Ratio
-
11.2
<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
- Capsize Screening
-
2.4
>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
Notes
Also offered with an unstayed cat rig.
Yanmar inboard offered as an option.
