Am guessing the C15's you are used to learning on use the stern sheeting/split mainsheet tail setup ? I have my C15 set up that way and while it also limits the boom travel, if you ease the boom out much further anyway the main hits the spreaders up at the upper battens, and you lose sail shape at that point...perhaps that is the reason for the limiting ? bl

Hello, I am looking to do two things to my Pirateer, I am brand new to sailing, so if anyone could help with either of the following, I would greatly appreciate it! A.) The mastplate to my boat has come loose, and the screws will not stay put in the fiberglass (holes are too big). I could use bigger screws, but would like to look into using spacers if possible, or perhaps screwing a larger plate on, to hold the screws in. Any ideas? B.) The ID Plate at the back of the boat has been removed. I believe it has a small symbol (waves?), and then the Pirateer logo next to it. I would like to replace this part, or replicate it. If anyone knows where I can purchase vintage ID plates, or can take a picture of theirs so that I can remold it, that would be great! Thank you in advance for your time!  

http://sailboatdata.com/viewrecord.asp?class_id=4308 This website has the manual for your boat as well as a bunch of other related info that may be helpful: http://chryslersailing.lizards.net/ Regarding the mast step plate, the best way to secure that plate would be to fill the existing holes in the fiberglass with fiberglass patches and re-drill new screw holes. Better still would be to use a backing plate under the deck and use nuts, washers and locking bolts to secure the whole affair. Screws will eventually work loose in fiberglass as you have no doubt found out. I can't help you with the ID plate. Check the 2nd link above carefully as it may contain some info. Good luck.

O'Day Widgeon or Chrysler Pirateer

• Add to quote

Looking to purchase a small, trailerable, easy to rig and handle, sailboat for my son and I to learn and get experience on. Both of these seem like good options but just wanting some other opinions and any pros and cons to each. Which would you choose??  

Generations of junior sailors have learned on Widgeons. But they're pretty small for an adult along with a kid, at 12'. The Pirateer i haven't sailed but looking at it: Chrysler Sailing Association Website It's bigger, more freeboard, and likely faster. Others may know more, but that's my desktop opinion.  

Chrysler Sailing Association Website Love it  

http://chryslersailing.lizards.net/images/gib2.jpg Sorry, try this.  

So do they seem like we would get the same kind of experience on either boat? I'm asking because I have heard that Widgeons sail/rig/whatever very similar to a regular bigger boat. Since I don't really know what that means (or what to look for in a beginning boat) all I can really do is read other's reviews. Our goal is to eventually get something larger that we can take out for whole weekends or even a week or two. We're not looking to race or anything. Well, I'm not. My 14 year old might beg to differ. Lol. Thanks y'all!!  

My first sailboat was a Chrysler Pirateer. It was a fun, light weight, fast sailboat. A good first boat for learning because it had a main and a jib. It can hold two adults. Has a dagger board, so with out weighted keel put hiking staps to use. But could comfortably steer and work the main sheet while hiking. I lived in a lake at the time so never towed it, but I use to push and pull it down to the lake on its trailer by myself. If I lived near a lake again and would buy another one in a heart beat.  

I learned on an O'Day Widgeon and treasure those days even now (I'm 52). The origional boat still in my garage as I have moved up nautically but I would sell it to the right owner for the right price. Still looking? I live outside Boston.  

could go over to odayowners.com for some info on the widgeon. I have a 19 O'Day. I enjoy it and it is not very hard to rig at all. I would imagine a 12 footer would be that much easier. maybe you could hold out for something a little bigger. the 19 is a good boat for starters, and it has a small shoal keel on it with drop down center board. weighs a bit more. close to 2000 lbs but that also makes it more like sailing a larger boat. has a smal cabin as well. you can usually find them for sale around 2k or less.  

I'd lean toward the Widgeon for two reasons: 1) According to sailboatdata.com, they have the same sail area and LWL. However, the Widgeon is lighter, so the SA/d is 45.2 for Widgeon and 22.9 for Pirateer. Theoretically, the Widgeon will be livelier and faster, which are two attributes that are important to teenage boys. 2) The Widgeon has some storage space. Then I would factor in how much work the available boats need. It you need to do work to make a boat sailable, don't buy it. Be honest with yourself: does your 14-year-old really want to learn to sail or are you projecting your wishes onto him? Don't be surprised if he shows little interest in sailing; most 14-year-olds would consider sailing to be boring. That may change your selection criteria.

1979 Chrysler Pirateer 13

• Description

Seller's Description

Great little day sailer - sailed in Fresh Water.

Hull and all spars in good shape.

Includes Trailer AND a Dolly

Equipment: New Performance Mainsail

New stainless kicker bracket

Honda 2hp air cooled outboard motor

outboard motor mount

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
