Does anyone know the hull speed for a 35. Sailed mine this weekend in 18-19 knot wind and hit 7+ speed close hauled.

Thanks for the info.
Hull Speed - I have always used a formula which is 1.34 x the square root of the waterline length.
For the Pilot that would be 5x1.34 which equals maximum hull speed. Of course when we are surfing downwind this does not apply
Orca whales Too cool Have pics
I dont know the arithmetical answer, but I think you're about there. That's about as fast as my Dorothy has ever gone. Once it was in the company of orca whales!
