KeymasterHello 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.

KeymasterHello 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.

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

KeymasterPlease 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.

KeymasterJust 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.

KeymasterHi 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.

KeymasterHello 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).

KeymasterHi 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.”

KeymasterHello Dan, We have added records for the SO 45 and 45 Performance. You can find the SO 45 here: https://sailboatdata.com/sailboat/sun-odyssey-45-jeanneau.
Thanks for reaching out.

KeymasterHi 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.

KeymasterThe good news is that what you are asking for is already available. Select “refine search” below the blue search bar to access additional search criteria.

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

KeymasterHello 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
