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)

1971 Flying Scot with Honda Outboard and LoadRite Trailer.

Holmdel, New Jersey

For sale is a 1971 Flying Scot. Hull number 1886. The boat is ready to be dropped in the water and is currently sailed by me and the kids. The bottom is unpainted. Condition if the boat is clean with some cosmetic blemishes. It does pass the 10 foot test though. The hull has no soft or wet spots - very sound. It comes with 4 sets of sails, some newer and some older, but all in good used condition. Spinnaker and a pole are also included. Also included is a newish blue mooring cover, which I had never used since it lives on the trailer. It sits on a 2002 Loadrite galvanized trailer, which is in excellent condition with good tires, new bearings and races with bearing buddies, new lights and title in hand. A like new Honda 2hp motor, perfect size for this boat, is included in the price. The motor has fresh oil change and starts on the first pull and never quits. Until I forget to add gas, that is. For those who are not familiar wit the Flying Scott, do a Google search - Plenty of good info online. I bought it to teach my kids the love of sailing. To let them experience the feeling when the boat catches the wind and starts pulling like a train. This boat is fast and stable - two characteristics that rarely go together in a 19 footer. Safety and stability was one of the reasons I went with FS and I do not regret it. Now, the family wants a larger boat. The price includes everything listed above plus a bunch of misc. stuff, which typically sloshes around in the bilge, like anchor, oars, cushions, bailing pumps, extra lines, etc... Also available a 1989 5HP Gamefisher motor with long shaft. This motor has been in storage for 10 years and has very low use. The boat must be picked up by the buyer. I can make it available for pick-up at 07733 or 18428.
