Performance Ratios

Against its peers, D/L stands out: higher than 87% of the 45 multihulls between 7.4 m and 9.1 m in our catalogue.

Ratios use published displacement (often light ship) and reported sail area; see Sources & methodology.

SA/Displacement (Reported): 12.96
Displacement/Length: 169.16

D/L 169. The monohull bands do not apply directly to multihulls. Higher than 87% of the 45 multihulls between 7.4 m and 9.1 m in our catalogue. Displacement relative to waterline length: low numbers mean a light boat that accelerates and planes easily, high numbers a heavy boat that carries its weight through a seaway.
