Comfort & capsize screening

Calculated from published model dimensions when available, not from an inspection of this individual vessel. Comparable models should be similar in size and hull type.

Motion comfort ratio

26.28

Higher generally indicates slower, gentler motion for similarly sized monohulls.

Capsize screening ratio

1.99

Lower is more conservative by this historical screening formula; 2.0 is a reference point, not a safety certification.

Reference formulas: Brewer motion comfort = displacement ÷ [0.65 × (0.7 LWL + 0.3 LOA) × beam^1.333]; capsize screening = beam ÷ (displacement / 64)^(1/3). Imperial units. Missing dimensions are not guessed. Neither figure predicts actual stability, safety, or seaworthiness.

Comparison uses model-level displacement and dimensions, not measured stability or vessel condition. Results can differ by keel, year and loading. These ratios do not determine offshore seaworthiness.
