For example, a 12-meter yacht of 60,000-pound displacement and 12-foot beam will have a CSF number of 1.23, so would be considered very safe from capsize. A contemporary light displacement yacht, such as a Beneteau 311 (7,716 lb, 10-foot 7-inch beam) has a CSF number of 2.14, and a Dufour 38 (14,300 lb, 12-foot 7-inch beam) comes in at 2.07.

Typically the diameter of halyards and sheets is determined by clutches, cleats and blocks on board of your ship. If you are into yacht racing or rigging a new boat, it can be good to calculate the minimum required breaking load of sheets and halyards in order to reduce weight of ropes onboard.

The CSF compares beam with displacement since excess beam contributes to capsize and heavy displacement reduces capsize vulnerability. The boat is better suited for ocean passages (vs coastal cruising) if the result of the calculation is 2.0 or less. The lower the better. CSF = …

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. Formula. D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³ D: Displacement of the boat in pounds. LWL: Waterline length in feet

When building a boat using flat sheet material, it makes the most sense to think in terms of sheet material and how one may optimize a hull design to suit the materials, without incurring extra labor. I am attracted to the single chine shape for metal boats. ... For larger yachts or for yachts which have a low height to beam ratio, there it is ...

Half dovetails are used to help tie carline to beam to hull. The strength of the joints will be affected by the type of covering used on the deck. Sheet plywood securely fastened to the deck beams will help to spread the loads in all horizontal directions, while laid planks on their own will only spread them in the fore and aft direction.

On occasion it is of interest to know the "Overall Beam" more or less for the same reasons as one would need to know the Overall Length of a vessel - usually for clearances during haulout or dock-side, in which case the maximum beam is given, including permanently fixed guards or other non-removable appendages.
The deck beams of a wooden boat do more than simply support the deck. They also have to withstand considerable stresses and loadings. The most obvious loadings are the downward ones, such as supporting the weight of anyone walking on deck and the weight of cabins and such like.
The Hull Identification Number (HIN) serves as the boat’s unique identifier, similar to the VIN of a car. If the dealer or broker listing the boat has not provided you with a report from Boat History Report®, ask them to provide you with the boat’s HIN so that you can run your own.
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.
