Seller's Description
Sailing yacht “Caprice” is a 77 ft custom build Norlin Cutter sloop yacht with superyacht allure. Built at the Swedish shipyard Brödern Jacobson in 1988. A very spacious and robustly built yacht designed by nautical architect Peter Norlin. The beautiful line of the Caprice exudes seaworthiness. This is really a yacht to make long journeys with. With a spacious salon with lots of light and views through the deck saloon windows, a very spacious galley that is fully equipped and 5 cabins with 10 berths including a very spacious owner’s cabin make the stay on board the Caprice very pleasant. The Mahony wooden interior gives a classic and chic ambiance, the many details and leather upholstery ensure a very neat appearance.
The owner’s cabin is very spacious and equipped with its own wet cell, a spacious sitting area and a library with work space. Above deck there is a mid-cockpit with a spacious round seat with lots of shelter and a Bimini. The helm is double and offers a perfect overview due to the elevation. With triple forestays equipped with hydraulic furlers, changing and setting up the sails is easy.
The Caprice has had a major refit in 2020 with many major innovations and improvements. Part of the refit was the installation of 2 new Yanmar engines, a complete refit of the teak deck, electrical installations, heating/air conditioning, roof hatches, sails and more. The refit was carried out by the Spanish shipyard Varando Amjomar.

Calculations
- Hull Speed
- ?
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
- ?
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
- ?
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
- ?
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
- ?
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
- ?
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
