Sail plan, sail condition and actual loading affect behaviour. A single number cannot predict performance.

Comfort and behaviour at sea

The indicators below help compare proportions. Interpret them alongside hull shape, mass distribution, loading, condition and sailing conditions.

Ballast / displacement Ballast / displacement	—	Insufficient compatible data
SA/D SA/D	—	Insufficient compatible data
D/L D/L	—	Insufficient compatible data
Comfort Ratio Comfort Ratio	—	Insufficient compatible data
Capsize Screening Formula Capsize Screening Formula	1.8	Calculation & limits beam_ft / (displacement_lb / 64)^(1/3) conventional-monohull-v1 A conventional indicator calculated from this configuration's published data. It is neither a safety certification nor a prediction of an individual boat's condition. Input sources are shown with the corresponding specifications.
Theoretical hull speed Theoretical hull speed	—	Insufficient compatible data
Power per tonne Power per tonne	—	Insufficient compatible data

These calculations are not safety certificates. STIX and AVS require specific documentation; they are not estimated from these ratios.

Propulsion

Engine power Engine power	—	Data awaiting verification

Fuel Fuel	—	Data awaiting verification
Water	—	Data awaiting verification

The original engine may have been replaced. Power, propeller, transmission and conditions together determine real use; consumption and range are not inferred from power alone.
