1990 Beneteau First 235 “Foxy Lady” for sale with trailer. I kept this boat in a slip at the Oconee Sailing and Yacht Club on Lake Sinclair until I brough it home to do some winter chores in the fall of 2022. I had a baby and another on the way since then and never found the time to work on her, so it’s time to pass her along to the next owner.
She has a full set of sails in great shape as well as all its previous sails. Marine head has been removed. I don’t have it, but I do have the black water tank. Headliner is coming unglued as seen in the pictures. Upholstery is like new with no tears or wear. This boat could be set up and sailed today or picked through and made very nice. Its due a bottom job and some minor TLC needed. The boat is for sale at $8,000 OBO.
If you are interested in it please call or email me. I’m happy to provide more information or more pictures.
Equipment: The boat comes with everything on it including - crisp mainsail in great shape - 2 more mains - spinnaker - furling 155% genoa that was redone by a sailmaker in 2022 - furling jib - another jib or two - depth sounder - tools - a stainless steel grill - custom trailer 2008 (tires replaced in 2021) - 5hp 4 stroke Honda outboard - new Dyneema lifelines - new boomkicker (not installed yet) - self tailing winches - original manual
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.
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
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.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
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.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
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.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
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.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
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.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Also available with swing keel
Draft (BD): 5.75’/1.75m
Draft (BU): 2.16’/0.66m
WINGED KEEL draft: 2.75’/0.84m).
