Seller's Description
Iguana is a must-see steel Mason 33, built in 1969 in Quebec, Canada, by a shipyard for commercial tugboats. COMPLETELY re-built in 2020, the wooden deck replaced with all new steel deck. Wheelhouse included to the design to helm the boat from inside. Boat sandblasted inside-out, thickness survey done, all hull thin plates replaced. Whole new electrical and electronics, new plumbing, new engine, new prop shaft, new hydraulic steering, new EVERYTHING! International epoxy primer with urethane paint over sandblasted bare steel. Hull isolated with spray close-cell foam in 2020, and new wooden interior done. Very dry boat, not a single water leak from the deck! Iguana is a “Bluewater-motorsailer”, a little bit like the Fishers, but in steel! With her 400L. (100 Gal.) of fuel capacity and her low consumption (2L or 0.5 Gal/Hour) she can go forever using her brand-new engine! Where Iguana surpass the Fishers, is when you turn off the engine; you find the sailing ability of the renowned Mason with the track stability of her full keel. Stay warm and dry in the heated wheelhouse while seated at the helm, even during storms and long night watches.

Boat stored on the hard in Indiantown, Florida, since April 2023.
Just back from the Bahamas, she is a turnkey, with tons of spare parts, ready to continue travelling the world!
Equipment: -“Go-anywhere-boat” fully equipped, liferaft, survival suit, watermaker, etc. -See equipment list in pictures, too much to list here! -All is new, and in perfect working condition. -Survey available; done in 2021, evaluated to 95 000$ Can. Mention excellent condition, better than new. -Owned and re-build by a merchant marine chief engineer. This boat is fitted like a commercial ship would be, over-build in every way, with distinctive work-boat touches. -All plans, technical drawings, construction invoices and equipment manuals included. -Boat registered in Quebec, Canada, as a new build 2017. -Boat located in Indiantown, Florida. In dry storage since April 2023. -Yard trailer available in Quebec, Canada. -Can sale like this (bottom paint needed) or make it ready to splash, to be discussed!

Calculations

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
