    Hello Pier, Since you are looking for Kalik 30 owners in Europe, and more specifically Italy, I thought I would post a link here to our Kalik 30 page. Not sure if it will help or not but you never know.

    Hello Glen,

    Thanks for letting us know about your Facebook group. We’ve added it to our database and have begun adding a link on all our Irwin boat records.

    in reply to: Devon Yawl updated info #85456

    Thanks Philip. We’ve updated our record for the Devon Yawl.

    in reply to: Nauticat 40 Sail Data #85398

    Please keep in mind, we have been building our database of 8,600 boats by hand, one boat at a time since 2003 so there can be typos and errors. Our first choice for specifications is information we find from the builder (and even that can vary year to year for the same model). We almost never use For Sale listings as they tend to vary too much.

    That said, we took another look at our Nauticat 40 record. We have revised the sail area to include the Main, Genoa and Mizzen sail. We also added the sail area of each individual sail, as well as the total SA including the Staysail (reported as a self-tacking jib), in the Notes section.

    Anyone interested can find the revised record here: https://sailboatdata.com/sailboat/nauticat-40

    Our apologies for any confusion. Hopefully this will help clarify the record.

    Just FYI… everything you see on sailboat.guide, from sailboat specs to information on designers and builders to associations, everything, was taken without permission from us.

    Hi Billy, We took another look at the Formosa 51. We tweaked it a bit but our record now matches a Formosa Boat Building Co brochure. The ballast weight they list seems low but it’s what they report.

    in reply to: Sou’wester 59 Comfort Ratio Max? #85323

    Hello Matt, In our database, we have 88 boats with CR’s over 50. Some older boats, late 1800’s, early 1900’s , were really heavy and have CR’s over 70 (only 5 in our database that high).

    in reply to: Serendipity 43 Ballast is wrong #85310

    Hi Fredrick, Thanks for reaching out. This was a little tough to verify but we found a page in Yachting, October 1983 reporting the ballast as 9,300 lbs so that’s what we went with.

    Thanks for the “heads-up.”

    Thanks for reaching out.

    in reply to: Westsail 39 versus Mariner 39 (Perry) #85271

    Hi Michael, You are basically correct about the 39’s history. The molds for the Fair Weather 39 were the Westsail 39 molds. We reached out to the Westsail Owners Association who was kind enough to send us builder’s documents from P&M Worldwide (who purchased the molds at the Westsail auction). While there are still a couple of minor differences between what was reported by P&M and what was reported by Fair Weather Mariner (pretty common in circumstances such as this), the two records now match each builder’s reported specs.
    Thanks for reaching out.

    in reply to: PHRF Rating for an X yacht 442 #85237

    YRALIS is the Yacht Racing Association of Long Island Sound (LIS is water just east of New York, between Connecticut and Long Island.

    The thing about PHRF is that the handicaps are assigned by local fleets. So geographic location matters. According to US Sailing the base rating for the X442 is:

    Fleet——————–Sec / Mile.
    EAST LONG ISLAND 45
    EASTERN CONN 36
    NARRAGANSETT BAY. 36
    NEW ENGLAND 36
    NO CALIFORNIA 36
    YRALIS-PHRF. 33 (psk125 is correct however, the YRALIS website currently shows a rating of 42 across the board.
    Hope this helps.

    in reply to: Cal 21 correction #85215

    Thanks for the “heads-up” on our error. We’ve updated the record.

    in reply to: Bowman 49 Ketch #85195

    Hello David. We found some information about the Bowman 49 Ketch in Bristow’s Book of Yachts (22nd edition, 1991), although it is not much and probably information you already have. We made a record you can find here: https://sailboatdata.com/sailboat/bowman-49-ketch

    If your drawings are digital and you would be interested in sharing them, we would love to see them. If so, please send them to contact@sailboatdata.com.

    Thanks!

    Bruce
