Seller's Description
Boat is located in: Antigua/Leeward Islands, West Indies
Sail Training Vessel Ocean Star.
Boat is located in: Antigua/Leeward Islands.
Ocean Star has been operating as a sail training vessel for our company since we acquired her in 1999.
She was built by the owners of Ocean Navigator Magazine in 1990 at Howdy Bailey Marine Metals in Norfolk, Virginia, and was designed by Murray G Peterson.
Ocean Star is currently MCA Red Ensign-flagged in the British Virgin Islands and she has a current Small Commercial Vessel Certificate to sail with 16 trainees (or 12 passengers) and four crew in Category 1 waters.
Ocean Star is a robustly built steel schooner with all new masts, standing rigging, and running rigging installed in 2018.
She sails with 20 persons aboard, in individual berths, and has the electrical generation, watermarking capabilities, freezer storage and galley facilities to support offshore sailing with a full crew.
The vessel is also equipped with a generator-run electric SCUBA compressor to support dive training or sport diving for the full crew.
Ocean Star is ready to continue as an offshore/passage making training vessel, be converted to a private vessel, operate as a live aboard SCUBA or watersports expedition vessel or operate in the British Virgin Islands as a commercial day-sailing operator.
The Vessel is currently booked with sail training voyages through mid-August, yet could be shown in the Leeward Islands.

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
