    Stability info for Southerly 115

    Hi, Does anyone know where I can get official Stability info for a 1985 Southerly 115. I need it to get the yacht MCA coded for charter. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Richard.

    Think this Eric Sponbergs post should be duplicated here. Also link to the original thread http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/boat-design/center-flotation-calculation-implications-30857-14.html

    Thanks for bringing my attention to Eric's excellent post, Teddy. Not enough time now to participate in the forums these days (work traveling), I'll study this interesting S number carefully when back home.

    All the best.

    Pretty sure they don't announce all the necessary data you to do that. Have you the spreadsheet for the STIX formula? If not here's a copy. Just throw the numbers in, but be aware, crap in.. ;)

    Alfredoc.
    I have found something useful here: http://cruisingresources.com/Jeanneau_Selection_37

    But to be able to work out an approximate STIX (roughly) I need a profile plan showing the sail plan and the underbody. If you provide me with such a plan I can do the numbers for you.

    Cheers.

    Dear Guillermo,
    first of all thank you for this trade is really interesting for learnig about boat and her stability.
    the only numbers who i have are the one-desing roule: http://selection37.com/francais/aps/JaugeDec05.pdf

    personally i need changing mast (more short ) but if my boat have a low stix and avs is unnecessary

    here i join a irc certificate of a selection modified (with the short mast)

    ciao

    Alfredo

    Those are more accurate numbers, excellent. Now we need a profile drawing.
