Hi! Does anyone know where we can get a rigging diagram for our 1987 Zuma 12' sailboat? Any help would be greatly appreciated....
Look at the pictures in this site..... the sail has a sleeve that slides over the mast.... a downhaul holds the sail in position. http://sailingtexas.com/szumae.html
Thanks Victory! Your photos were very helpful. We look forward to sailing our Zuma on Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire next week...

Zuma is a 12 ′ 9 ″ / 3.9 m monohull sailboat designed by Gary Grossman/Steve Nichols and built by AMF Corp. and Pearson Yachts starting in 1984.
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)

Hi everyone! Apologies in advance for the stupid questions. I got a used Zuma (guessing it is from the 80s) and it's in pretty good shape, only issue is the cleat on the mast is broken (pics attached). I know NOTHING about sailing but I'm trying to learn.

I've got some health issues going on and being able to "bathtub sail" the Zuma (think how most adults sail in an Opti after dinner with a beer in one hand and limbs hanging out all 4 sides of the boat) hull is moderately possible for me while a Laser hull is just impossible. I see a fair amount of criticism of the Zuma on here.
It takes into consideration "reported" sail area, displacement and length at waterline. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. A cat with a number 0.6 is likely to sail 6kts in 10kts wind, a cat with a number of 0.7 is likely to sail at 7kts in 10kts wind. KSP = (Lwl*SA÷D)^0.5*0.5

The Zuma was designed to provide fun and performance in a safe and super stable package. Specifications: LOA: 12'9". Beam: 5'. Sail Area: 65 square feet. Hull Weight: 130 lbs. Features: Two water-tight ports with storage bags for valuables, clothes, towel, and munchies. Comfortable rolled seat tanks.
The sail type is quite a bit different - the Sailfish sail is a lateen rig, with two spars, and the lower spar normally has a gooseneck that connects to the mast. I'm honestly not sure if the Zuma mast would fit into that gooseneck. I'd probably look into selling the Sailfish rig and finding a used Zuma sail, or just buy the new one from Intensity.

North Carolina. $800. Description: 1985 Zuma sailboat with galvanized trailer. 13ft 9in length. 4ft 1inch beam. Similar in size and characteristics to a Sunfish or Laser. This offering includes: - 1985 Zuma sailboat with a sturdy trailer. - Hull and all components (Mast, boom, sail. tiller, daggerboard) in good condition.
Not wanting to make waves, but the Zuma is a great one-man boat as well. In fact, I often sailed solo on mine. Like the Sunfish, it's really a very light boat, weighing in at 130 lbs. (the same as a SF) but with a 5' beam. The advantage is that it can also carry more crew. Don't think of it as in the same class as the 340 lb. Catalina 14.2!
Rod rigging is made of a straight, single strand. Wire rigging is made of many twisted strands. Normally rod rigging is 20% stronger than wire of the same diameter. Wire has the advantage of an early warning of fatigue when a strand breaks. Fatigue in rod happens without any warning at all. It can be sudden and sometimes catastrophic.
