Hull Speed

[Al]

Does anyone know the max hull speed for the 26' Oday.

Al...According to Royce's "Sailing Illustrated", p.142, 1.6 times the square root of the waterline length seems appropriate for an O'day-type hull. I'm not sure of the units, but, it appears that if you use waterline length in ft, the answer will come up in knots.Rick/'Solace';Apollo Beach, FL

My max hull speed, when all is right with the world, is 6 knots.
