    Well done Antonio!

    FIRST 345

    INPUT
    Loa = 11,00 m
    Lh = 10,55 m
    Lwl = 9,08 m
    Bmax = 3,49 m
    Bwl = 3,14 m
    Draught T = 1,45 m
    Body draught Tc = 0,57 m (WILD GUESS. Profile missing)
    Moulded depth H = 1,75 m (WILD GUESS. Profile missing)
    Disp = 5700 kg
    Ballast = 2050 kg
    Sail area = 50,73 m2
    Mast height = 15,01 m
    Heeling Arm = 6,58 m
    Power = 21 KW

    OUTPUTS
    Length/Beam Ratio (2Lwl + Lh)/3B = 2,74
    Lwl/Bwl Ratio Lwl/Bwl = 2,89
    Length/Draught Ratio Lh/T = 7,28
    Beam/Draught Ratio Bmax/T = 2,41
    WL beam/Body draught Bwl/Tc = 4,69
    Ballast/Disp Ratio W/Disp = 0,36
    Displacement/Length Ratio D/L = 212,37
    Sail Area/Disp. Ratio SA/D = 16,16
    Sail Area/Wetted surface SA/WS = 2,05
    Power/ Disp. Ratio HP/D = 2,27 HP/ton
    Hull speed HSPD = 7,31 Kn
    Potential Maximum Speed PMS = 7,90 Kn
    Velocity Ratio VR = 1,08
    Best motoring speed (1.1) CSPD = 6,00 Kn
    Capsize Safety Factor CSF = 1,97
    Motion Comfort Ratio MCR = 24,00
    Roll Period T = 2,78 Sec
    Roll Acceleration Acc = 0,12 G's
    Stability Index SI = 0,80
    Angle of Vanishing Stability AVS = 120 º
    Dellenbaugh Angle DA = 16,13 º (14 kn wind)
    Wind pressure coefficient WPC = 1,31

    Estimated STIX 38,68

    As moulded depth is relevant to calculate STIX, the figure here has to be taken with more care than usual.

    NOT TRUSTABLE NUMBERS!

    Cheers.

    Using your numbers for the Puma 34, except for sail area, and guessing a lot:

    INPUT
    Lh = 10,35 m
    Lwl = 8,20 m
    Bmax = 3,35 m
    Bwl = 3,02 m
    Draught T = 1,85 m
    Body draught Tc = 0,63 m (WILD GUESS)
    Moulded depth H = 1,75 m (WILD GUESS)
    Disp = 5400 kg
    Ballast = 2400 kg
    Sail area = 55 m2 (WILD GUESS)
    Mast height = 15.5 m (WILD GUESS)
    Heeling Arm = 6.94 m (WILD GUESS)
    Power = 13,5 KW


    OUTPUT
    Length/Beam Ratio (2Lwl + Lh)/3B = 2,66
    Lwl/Bwl Ratio Lwl/Bwl = 2,72
    Length/Draught Ratio Lh/T = 5,59
    Beam/Draught Ratio Bmax/T = 1,81
    WL beam/Body draught Bwl/Tc = 4,79
    Ballast/Disp Ratio W/Disp = 0,44
    Displacement/Length Ratio D/L = 273,17
    Sail Area/Disp. Ratio SA/D = 18,16
    Sail Area/Wetted surface SA/WS = 2,43
    Power/ Disp. Ratio HP/D = 1,54 HP/ton
    Hull speed HSPD = 6,95 Kn
    Potential Maximum Speed PMS = 7,82 Kn
    Velocity Ratio VR = 1,13
    Best motoring speed (1.1) CSPD = 5,71 Kn
    Capsize Safety Factor CSF = 1,93
    Motion Comfort Ratio MCR = 25,85
    Roll Period T = 2,96 Sec
    Roll Acceleration Acc = 0,10 G's
    Stability Index SI = 0,88
    Angle of Vanishing Stability AVS = 126 º
    Dellenbaugh Angle DA = 24,06 º (14 kn wind)
    Wind pressure coefficient WPC = 0,88


    Estimated STIX 37,14

    The same as before:
    NOT TRUSTABLE NUMBERS!

    Cheers.
