Seller's Description

1993 F27 Corsair, Hull 393 Asking price: USD $38,500- or CAD $52,000-. The F27 racer-cruiser provides a range of waterborne recreation and adventure possibilities. This craft represents a unique and unbeatable combination of comfort, performance, and ease of handling. The interior layout is functional and spacious. Berths include a V-berth forward, individual settees / bunks on each side of the main cabin area which can be converted a double berth, and a single (or a cozy double) bunk in the aft cabin. A fully enclosed head (the holding tank under the V-berth) with vanity beside the V-berth, and a galley with a two-burner alcohol stove and the stainless-steel sink round out the main cabin area. On deck, theres a large amount of space, and this combined with low angles of heel while sailing offers comfortable rides in the right conditions. The center cockpit offers ease for shorthanded sailing and increased safety on open ocean passages. The well-mannered F27 Cockpit is very suitable for shorthanded sailing with one or two people. In addition, it is a great practical cruising boat for the family, perfect for visiting a secluded beach for lunch and then safely heading back to the trailer before nightfall.

Equipment: Notable Equipment details Sails include: o Neil Pryde Dacron mainsail (condition: great) o Neil Pryde Dacron furling genoa (great) o Doyle symmetrical nylon spinnaker (as new) o Rolly Tasker (smaller) nylon asymmetrical spinnaker (as new) o Leitch & McBride PX black Triradial Code 0 (excellent) Furlers include: o 2021 Harken MKIV Unit 0 for the headsail o 2022 Colligo CN3 Luff Line Furler for the Code 0 A 5.5 ft retractable aluminum bowsprit A 2012 Yamaha 9.9 hp long shaft electric start outboard and a 2023 Yamaha 703 Remote Control Box A new starter battery PWM solar charger and 100 W solar panel Raymarine ST60 depth, speed, and wind indicator An Origo 4000 alcohol stove Antifoul paint refreshed March 2024 A 1993 Pacific tandem axle trailer (Condition: good)

Calculations

Hull Speed
11.6 kn
Classic: 6.87 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

11.6 knots
Classic formula: 6.87 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
37.7
>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.
37.74
<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
64.2
<100: Ultralight

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
64.18
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
3.0
<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
2.96
<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
5.6
>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
5.56
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

The F-28, introduced in 1998, is similar but with a number of small updates including a rotating spar.
(Renamed CORSAIR 28 in 2001.)
