Corbin 39 Performance — PHRF, SA/D, Hull Speed & Sailing Characteristics

The Corbin 39 is designed for cruising comfort rather than racing.

Hull Speed

The theoretical displacement-mode speed limit — determined by waterline length, not engine or sail power.

7.6 kts

A displacement hull pushes a bow wave whose speed is limited by the waterline length. With a waterline of 32.0′, the Corbin 39 tops out around 7.6 knots in displacement mode — after that, the bow wave outruns the hull and resistance climbs steeply.

1.34 × √32.0′ LWL = 7.6 kts
