    I am presently looking for some information to start my sailboat design. What I am exactly looking for now is specs of 30-35 foots cutter sailboat kind. I mean by specs : Loa, Lwl, Bmax, T, Displacement, some ratios and stuff like that. So if some one could help me, I would appreciate!
    Thanks,
    Vince

    The determination of basic dimensions is the most difficult part of beginning a design.

    Vince,

    Here's a design spreadsheet of about 650 boats of LOA between 30 and 38 ft. I make no guarantee about the accuracy of any of the numbers since I have had to estimate some of them. All units are english.
