Seller's Description

General condition and any additional information

Beneteau 423 sailboat built in 2007 for sale,. Located at Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Mentioned Beneteau 423 - Ocean Echo 1 is a 43 footer with 3 cabins 2 heads and nav table layout, which is hard to find-You can always use cabin for storage, but you cannot turn storage into the cabin.

This Beneteau 423 is modified for convenient cruising with practical approach-She has a lot of advanced features for comfortable living-You will not find Beneteau 423 upgraded to level of Ocean Echo 1 anywhere (my friends call her the smart boat)-Ready for extended sailing/cruising. Has not been offshore, has not been grounded, no charter in the past, no insurance claims-This Beneteau 423 has been well maintained (I have mechanical background).

I am retiring from boating after 35 years of sailing, offshore cruising and boat maintenance-This includes extended offshore cruising in Pacific Ocean (South Pacific) on previous sailboat Beneteau Oceanis 400-I am willing to help with many inquiries-Weather forecasting and navigation is my hobby.

Please send your inquiries to - Beneteau423build2007@gmail.com or oceanecho1@gmail.com.

Calculations

Hull Speed
10.8 kn
Classic: 8.32 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

10.75 knots
Classic formula: 8.32 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
19.0
16-20: good 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.
18.99
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
29.9
<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

29.93
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
152.0
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
151.96
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
24.8
20-30: coastal cruiser

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
24.79
<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
1.9
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages

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
1.92
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

Also called BENETEAU 423.
Shallow keel: 4.76’
Deep keel: 6.89’
