I’m selling my Prindle 19 (stored in an enclosed boat barn) with the MX conversion and spinnaker setup to fund a new boat (needs new pole, but i have the snuffer). She has been an absolute blast and I can’t say how much I’ve enjoyed her. The racing is calling me in a different direction. She has all the goodies plus some. I truly think I’ve got more Prindle 19 spares than just about anybody. The bottoms were resurfaced in 2018. The boat is rigged to race and she does very well in our fleet on Galveston Bay.The boat as she stands. 2022 MX sailplan from C&C sailmakers in Houston 2018 Smyth square top of standard size Original pin top sail suit 2 spinnaker, one f18 (blown out) and one new C&C2 spare hulls (one per side) 2 spare beams 2 spare masts 2 spare standard rudders 1 spare centerboard 4 castings 2 sets of short gougens 10:1 main sheet 16:1 cascading downhaul Cat trax 1 year old Colligo soft rigging set (back up wire stored in the box in my shed Dyneema trapeze wires 2019 SLO Bias Cut trampoline 2 brand new spare bow tangs Trailer ready for the road (bearings repacked in 2021) Registration with title good for Texas till June of 2026Make me an offer
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)
