Tapered aluminum spinnaker pole. Quantum mainsail with 2 reefs inspected and serviced in 2021. Jib halyard and main outhaul led to Harken magic boxes. Padded deck platform spanning centerboard (large enough for sleeping), 4 beach rollers store under deck providing additional floatation included. Running backstays for asym use. Harken and Ronstan blocks and cleats. Vectran halyards, spectra and dyneema running rigging. Large custom reinforced kick-up rudder and hardware, Carbon fiber tiller with Ronstan battlestick extension.

Custom Boom Tent (new in bag) from SailorTailor Solid road worthy trailer with recent bearing service and new wheels/tires (Its been back and forth to Florida 2020-21, 2022). Currently available for inspection in Tennessee, titled and registered in Florida. I can potentially help with delivery locally or between Tn and Florida. If you are seriously looking for an expedition equipped dinghy for the Everglades Challenge or otherwise, you should consider this boat. Feel free to PM me to discuss.
I would like the boat to be used rather than sitting. Asking $6750 Willing to deliver within 200 mi
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)
