I'm wondering if there is a site where I can get a owners manual for a amf Zuma? Is there much if any difference between the amf and vanguard Zuma boats? I just bought a 1987 and would like a manual and any info anyone may have. Thank You!
Vanguard I doubt there is much difference between a Vanguard and an AMF Zuma - your best source of info is likely to be Vanguard at the link below. A friend who is restoring an old CFJ was able to get good info from them & if there is not much difference a current manual and parts list should help you a lot.
More Zuma Questions Hi - I'm interested in purchasing a 1985 Zuma. I'm not much of a sailer (yet), so I have a few newbie type questions. - How difficult is it to set the mast into the boat? When I grew up, my family had an O'Day which was an absolute nightmare to get the mast onto the boat. The Zuma mast appears pretty high, so what is the process to get the mast installed? - I may want to leave the boat moored on a lake when not in use. Is it easy to store the sail with the boat? - For this specific boat, some of the sail battens are missing and the ropes are in very bad shape. Are parts easy to find? How much would all new ropes cost? Thanks for all the help! Jen

Zuma is a 12 ′ 9 ″ / 3.9 m monohull sailboat designed by Gary Grossman/Steve Nichols and built by AMF Corp. and Pearson Yachts starting in 1984.
Rig and Sails
Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.
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
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
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.
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 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.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
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.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
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.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
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.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

 Zuma® Sail Product OverviewIn stock and ready to ship!!. Application These sails are recreational sails and are popular for use on the older model Zuma® sailing dinghy and are patterned after the original sails we designed and built for Vanguard and Sunfish-Laser in years past. 
**Note: Many have asked us about our fabric being polyester and not Dacron. Dacron was a registered trademark of DuPont® for their polyester (PET) yarns used in sailmaking. DuPont® is no longer in the polyester/sail fiber business. Just about any woven sailcloth today is made from someone's version of polyester (PET) and there are several suppliers worldwide. Dupont just isn't one of them.

Bring both ends down the mast and tie them of to the cleat. Place the mast butt against a solid object, lift the top end, and walk toward the butt, raising it hand over hand until the mast stands vertical. Rotate the mast until the gooseneck (the metal post about two feet above the butt) points toward the stern.

Maybe the whole rudder assembly, but at a minimum the cheek. - before that Zuma rudder cheeks were just for Zumas. - you can tell which you have by measuring the diameter of the spring loaded bolt (the "pintle pin") that connects the rudder to the boat: if its 3/8", you have the post-1995 style. If its 1/2", you have the earlier style.
