‘Faith’ is an amazing textbook sailboat. Only 4 owners. Clean antique lines and trim. Carl Alberg design. Hull #239. Full keel. Thick fiberglass hull. She lived on Lake Michigan, then went down the Mississippi, through the Panama Canal and up the Pacific West Coast to her present home in Everett, WA. 2005-10. She’s a tough little boat. Great for cruising Puget Sound. Not much action the past few years. This is a no frills as is project boat. She cleans up nice and easy. V-berth and 2 side bunks. Sink and water tank. and head. Large cockpit for day sailing with groups of friends. Easy to handle. She needs love. We have other hobbies and can’t give the attention needed. Moored in Everett Marina. Can maintain slip.

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)
Same hull as Pearson ARIEL but with a longer cockpit and shorter coachroof. The designer (Carl Alberg) owned a COMMANDER himself, in his later years.
The standard boat has an outboard well but an Atomic 4 inboard was available as an option.
