Seller's Description
I’ve owned this boat since spring of 2018 and I’m now buying a larger boat. This is the third cruiser I’ve owned and the best handling and constructed of any of them and is also surprisingly quick to hull speed. Generally, the boat is in great shape (purchase survey available upon request). The boat was most recently hauled out in September (pictures included) and most recently serviced by a diver in May (video of bottom inspection available upon request). The boat is also very dry.
The motor is the boat’s original Yanmar 1gm10 (picture included). I’ve generally serviced this myself for regular items (filters, zinc, etc.), but I did have the exhaust elbow replaced (common failure for these engines) and the oil pan replaced in mid 2018. I also had the PSS replaced last fall when I hauled the boat out. I’ve never had a hint of a problem with the motor or transmission. All of the maintenance records from my ownership (and many from the prior owner) as well as a complete ship’s log are available for inspection for serious buyers.
Note: I did get a scuff on the starboard side when a fender popped out during a storm, but I have all of the materials to spray the exact-match Interlux paint. This can be seen in some of the photos.
All of the photos except the haul-out are from within the last several weeks.
Equipment: -Good condition sails, -Good condition canvas, -Asymmetric spinnaker, -Fully functional galley, -Rocna anchor and chain, -Radar, -AIS receiver, -Wind sensor, -GPS and solid state compass (provides bearing for chart plotter), -Autopilot (follows bearing, wind, or fixed tiller position), -Push-button forced-air diesel heater (think: just like you’re home’s forced-air heater if you’ve never used one of these), -Electric windlass (remote control in cockpit and controllable at bow), -Davits for a dinghy, -A Dinghy and oars, -Motor mounts for the dinghy (sorry - no motor), -Some new running rigging including new high-tech spinnaker tack line (and hardware), -New high-tech sheets and tweakers, -New boom preventer, and -New downhaul (cunningham).

Calculations
- Hull Speed

6.9 kn
Classic: 6.37 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
-
18.0
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
-
44.6
>40: stiffer, more 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
-
267.9
200-300: moderate
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
-
21.0
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
- Capsize Screening
-
2.1
>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
