This boat is a 1966 36 Cheoy Lee sailboat and the first hull offered in fiberglass.

It was designed by a Belgian naval architect named Maurice Declercq and was a big winner in many races.

After sailing the gem for many years, I decided to retore it.

I removed the teak deck, reinforced the deck, replace the engine with anew rebuilt one, rebuilt the transmission, replace the bilge pumps and put in all new hoses.

Both the engine and transmission have less than 5 hours since the rebuild.

I painted the hull, decks and interior.

The boat come as a complete package, except for some minor cosmetic rehab.

The boat has all the sail 5, spinnaker boom, sleeping bags, new cushions outside and inside, dishes, pots and pans, silverware.

Also includes is a restored Achilles Dinghy with a 45 horsepower motor.

Calculations

Hull Speed
6.4 kn
Classic: 6.78 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

6.36 knots
Classic formula: 6.78 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
13.8
<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.
13.79
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
29.5
<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

29.47
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
424.9
>350: ultraheavy

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
424.9
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
39.7
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising 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
39.74
<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
1.6
<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
1.59
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

Based on the successful racer ‘Flying Buffalo’. MaUrice Declerc sold the design to Choey Lee. This production version was also sold as the FLYING BUFFALO 36. The OFFSHORE 36 was one of Cheoy Lee’s most popular sailboat models.
