Seller's Description
Good shape 1986 seaward 17 slipper “tinkerbell”. Has new 2020 tohatsu sailpro long shaft outboard (4 stroke) new rigging lines , and newer tanbark sails (3 hank on jibs and one main). Has brand new porta potti and original cabin cushions in great shape. Has sail boom cover, Jib bag, and Tiller cover in maroon sunbrella. Black hull with classic look. Currently in winthrop harbor (you could use the rest of the season). Smallest sailboat in the marina but gets complimented on it’s “salty great looks” for a 17’ it has a wide 8’ beam and is great on the big lake. The new 6hp motor has an extra long shaft and high thrust prop. Don’t have to worry as it starts right up and sips fuel.
Cabin has doube v-bearth and two mid bearths. Porta potti and small sink. We day sailed but some do over night in these.
Trailer is clean with brand new wheels / tires (bearing new about 3 years ago)
Ready to sail. includes safety items (radio, pdf’s, flares, and more) What it could use not all bright work revarnished. New DC panel installed but the running lights don’t work (cabin lights do work)ports and windows leak a little and could use rebedding. We have never dropped the centerboard in 5 years even on lake Michigan. Not sure if it drops the few inches as we never needed it. I was going to glass it in but lack of time did not. reducing price to what I have in it for engine, sails and safety equipment. Really lacking any free time at the moment.reducing price and you can use the slip for the rest of the year.

Calculations

6.4 kn
Classic: 5.16 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

20.7
>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.
- Ballast/Displacement
-
34.0
<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
-
171.1
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
-
7.8
<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
-
3.0
>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
