Boat: Gulfstar Sailmaster 39 Freespirit | fairly heavy design at 28,000 lbs empty . She draws 5' 6 " but Gulfstar says 4' 9" . I have had the boat for about 2.5 yrs and did have problems with and after I purchased the boat found delaminations from the manufactures application of two layers of wolving roving back to back . I had the problem fixed in which also got rid of the . As far as the boat it is concerned it is a fantastic boat and worth all the and expense . The boat great and does not beat you to death . The boat handles the and sea well but needs at least 10 knots of wind to move , the boat needs no reefing till 25 to 30 knots of wind. My is to look at the Gulfstar 39 the may be close and the boat are very close in spec's . The important thing is to check the boat out good so you get what you pay for . The Gulfstar does have good to hull joint which is glassed well and the overall build is very strong . The boat is a great with great confort and room . Check them out if you find a good one you will love them . Good luck and may fair winds be yours . Joseph Brancato Gulfstar Sailmaster 39 S/V Free Spirit Sound |

. Although there is usually wind and seas, I have had a boat that did not do anything in light wind and it is dissapointing. The qualities be being safe and comfortable especially on a body of that can change quickly from sun to to wind to big seas all in a day is a big plus. It may be a big boat to maintain but it looks like a lot of value. Thanks - MattS | |

Boat: Gulfstar Sailmaster 39 Freespirit | 95 to 125 foot draggers although 31 yrs ago and learned not to be afraid. The main thing is you have to understand is a bigger boat can't be manhandled to and from the or what ever . To get a 125 ft boat you use spring lines and etc. You have to think of what is going to happen to the boat before you make a move or another way of looking at it is know your boat and plan ahead. I own the S/V Freespirit which is 39.7 long beam of 12.1 and very heavy and I hand it with no problem and I am partly disabled after having eight operations on my arms and shoulders and have two bad dics in my back. My point you have to use your not your back . I set up my lines and fenders before I and look at the other boats which way are the facing into the wind or , and come in that way . Displacement boats (most sail boats are reacting to if it is strong and when you come into the current you have flow across your and therefore Control . If I have to come into the dock and its a strong cross current and heavy winds I don't come to the dock without help ( a man has to know his limitations and wait till slack tide and milder winds. I refuse to not sail because no one wants to go but do it safe plan ahead and pickyour days . I keep my boat on a and that also helps abit . One more thing I love being along some of the best sailing can be done alone but you need to have you s--t together I don't wait till stuff breaks and don,t wait till hell lets loose to get a reef in. There is no perfect boat but you have to know yours well I hope I made you fill better about it just grab it by the horns you will love it. May fair winds fill your sails |

It takes into consideration "reported" sail area, displacement and length at waterline. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. A cat with a number 0.6 is likely to sail 6kts in 10kts wind, a cat with a number of 0.7 is likely to sail at 7kts in 10kts wind. KSP = (Lwl*SA÷D)^0.5*0.5
