Seller's Description
We are selling our beloved Com-Pac 27 sailboat Annie Belle because we have bought a trawler. It is sloop rigged with sails in good shape, roller furling jib, and has a shoal draft keel that draws 3-6, perfect for Florida waters. She also comes with a Triton double-axle trailer with tongue extension for launching and retrieving, custom built for this boat (trailers are rare for a sailboat this size).
Yanmar 2GM20F diesel engine in excellent running order with regular maintenance. Three house batteries and one isolated starter battery all brand new. Shore power and bulkhead mounted smart charger. Raymarine autopilot with hand-held remote and depth finder make this boat easy to single hand. Bimini top with window, sail catcher/cover with lazy jacks. Bruce anchor on roller with chain and rope anchor rode.
Major lifestyle upgrades include custom teak swim platform with swim ladder plus stereo system with two separate audio zones (cabin and cockpit), each with four speakers, subwoofers and separate amps. Also custom perch seats in aft corners of cockpit with cupholders and cushions (our favorite place to sit).
Interior is beautiful with standing headroom and new upholstery selected by interior designer and professionally installed. Two burner gas stove in galley and Magma kettle grill on cockpit rail are both connected to in-line propane from tank under helm seat. 8 brass port holes and teak throughout give it a distinctly nautical look. Teak and holly sole just refinished. Fold away table expands to serve four. Private head with full sized door, standing headroom, sink and shower. Lots of new extra LED lighting throughout cabin.
This is a wonderful boat that our family is sad to part with but we are going to try a trawler for awhile. I have the sailboat priced for a quick sale while it is still in the slip and will be in Pensacola March 27-31 accepting delivery of the trawler. After that I intend to haul it out and get a broker (I live out of state) so it will still be for sale but the price is likely to increase accordingly.

Calculations

6.3 kn
Classic: 6.3 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
-
15.1
<16: under powered
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
-
344.2
300-400: heavy
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
-
27.3
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
-
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
Notes
Introduced (1987) at a time when the boating industry was in a state of near collapse.
Also promoted as DIMENSION 27. It’s not certain that even a prototype was actually built.
