If you're in the market for an extremely capable blue water cruiser, with the ability to go around the world in comfort, then this is the boat for you. The Young Sun is a heavily built world cruiser easily sailed by two persons, and performs surprisingly well in light air and is outstanding in heavy weather. This is a serious cutter-rig that is a true blue water cruiser. With her combination of molded fiberglass hull and magnificent teak, she is a classic double ender that will take her new owners anywhere in the world.

The knowledgeable owner is an extremely experienced sailor who spent 2 years preparing the vessel for a voyage to New Zealand and beyond. Following a 4000 mile mostly solo shakedown cruise from Ft Lauderdale to the Eastern Caribbean, then to Cartagena, San Blas, as well as several Panamanian ports, he returned singlehanded to Ft Lauderdale which was a 12 day non-stop 1400 mile journey. Upon his return, the 78 yr old owner has decided this vessel is a bit too much for his ability to singlehand at his age, and has reluctantly put her on the market!.

• Aluminum Mast and new standing rigging (replaced original wooden mast and rigging)
• 88 HP Yanmar (1998)
• 3 Solar panels
• Monitor Self Steering wind vane system

1984 Young Sun Pilothouse 43

• Description

Seller's Description

The Young Sun 43 is a spacious, comfortable liveaboard home with 6’3’ headroom. ‘Osprey’ is a proven blue water cruising boat with two circumnavigations under her belt so far and traditional looks that turn heads anywhere she goes. She was designed by Ron Amy and built in the Formosa shipyard with a quality thick fiberglass hull that you won’t find in today’s production boats. She boasts beautifully crafted teak woodwork on the interior giving the look and warmth of a real wooden boat but retains the strength and piece of mind of a solid fiberglass lamination. You may have heard of the Spindrift 43 as the ‘Young Sun’ model was renamed when they brought it to the American market. The pilot house design provides the option of inside and outside hydraulic steering so no matter what the weather conditions you are comfortable.

Her full keel with a ‘double ended’ transom and high bow gives her a seakindly movement and wonderful comfort and security at sea. The cutter rig makes all the sails manageable and gives you sail plan options for all conditions. Her spacious two cabin layout works for a family or a couple. Step aboard Osprey and I think anyone would agree she truly is one of a kind and a must see for anyone with dreams of sailing the Caribbean and beyond!

Newly rebuilt 65 hp Cummins engine (2018) on new motor mounts that runs great with only 90 hours with Triton Dripless Shaft Seal and New Exhaust manifold

Other recent upgrades include; (4) 100 watt solar panels w/ 30 amp Blue Sky charge controller, Garmin chart plotter, Raymarine radar, NEW Upholstery, 12V fridge/freezer, Upgraded Electric Head & plumbing recently replaced, New Exhaust, New oversize 10mm rigging (2017) and custom woodwork completed by a professional shipright that would impress the best of the best!

Don’t miss out on this chance to own a piece of sailing history!

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)

Under this name mostly exported to Australia. Center cockpit and aft cockpit/w pilot house versions. The SPINDRIFT 43 seems to be the same design.
