Made by Johannsen Boatworks in Sebastion, Florida
Manufacturer’s Comments:
The Raider 16 is a one-design, mono-hull, recreational and racing dinghy, created and engineered to offer best-in-class stability and maximum speed in minimal wind.
With a narrow waterline beam, a very fine entry and a high aspect daggerboard, the Raiders upwind performance is excellent. The striking 16 footer has a waterline length of 15’11” and the 7’4” beam gives the Raider excellent stability. The unique hull design allows planing speeds in excess of 13 knots in even moderate winds. The cockpit of the Raider has been designed for comfortable day sailing, having eliminated all hard spots and corners. It features lightweight, high-performance control lines that lead to the cockpit for easy sail control. The hull features fine quality hardware, and with a total hull weight of just 200 pounds, the Raider can easily and quickly be ramp or beach launched. -
Manufacturer’s Description:
Raider is a one-design, mono-hull, recreational and racing sailboats, created and engineered to offer best-in-class stability and maximum speed in minimal wind. Sailors of every age, shape and size and ability level can sail the Raider confidently in all conditions, all without the swimming lessons for which high performance one-designs are notorious. The Raider is specifically engineered to deliver high-performance sailing to beginners and experienced sailors alike, regardless of skill or athletic ability and can be sailed for pleasure or raced competitively single-handed or with a crew member (max crew weight 400 pounds).. First introduced in the late 1990s and further refined in 2004, over 150 Raider sailboats are currently sailing and racing in the marketplace. With a narrow waterline beam, a very fine entry and a high aspect daggerboard, the Raiders upwind performance is excellent. The striking 16 footer has a waterline length of 1511 and its 74 beam gives the Raider excellent stability. The unique hull design allows planning speeds in excess of 13 knots in even moderate winds The cockpit of the Raider is designed for comfortable day sailing eliminating all hard spots and corners. Both models feature lightweight, high-performance control lines that all lead to the cockpit for easy sail control. The hull features fine quality hardware and with a total hull weight of just 200 pounds, the Raider can easily and quickly be ramp- or beach-launched. The Raider is specifically designed for exceptional stability, so it is uniquely suitable for big and tall sailors. Raider is also attractive to active seniors who enjoy higher performance single- or double-handed racing, sailing solo or cruising with a crew member. Light enough to be towed behind a compact car Simple enough to be rigged and sailed in under a half hour Easily launch from a ramp, beach or shoreline Lightweight aluminum mast is easily stepped by the crew or phone 770-831-0403
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)
