About the Granada 375

Built by Granada Yachts of Denmark beginning in 1978, this 37-footer represents Danish yacht building craftsmanship from designer Kristian Rode. The Granada 375 features a modern fin keel configuration with spade rudder, providing responsive handling characteristics that appeal to sailors seeking both performance and comfort. With a displacement of 14,330 pounds and 5,511 pounds of ballast, this masthead sloop strikes a balance between stability and sailing performance. The hull's 30.41-foot waterline length generates a theoretical hull speed of 7.39 knots, while the sail area to displacement ratio of 23.43 suggests moderate power that's well-suited for coastal cruising and weekend sailing. The comfort ratio of 25.14 indicates a boat that prioritizes sailing comfort over outright speed, making it an attractive option for cruising sailors who value a smooth motion through the water. Meanwhile, the capsize screening formula of 1.96 falls within acceptable parameters for coastal and near-offshore sailing, though serious offshore passages would require careful weather planning. Danish yacht builders earned reputations for solid construction and thoughtful design details, and the Granada 375 continues this tradition with fiberglass construction that has proven durable over decades. The boat appeals to sailors seeking a well-balanced cruiser with European styling and craftsmanship.

Performance Ratios
SA/Displacement Sail Area to Displacement ratio measures how much sail power a boat has relative to its weight. Higher values mean more performance and speed.
Under 14 — Heavy cruiser, slow14–18 — Cruising sailboat18–22 — Cruiser/racerOver 22 — Performance racer
 23.43
Ballast/Displacement Ballast to Displacement ratio shows what percentage of the boat's total weight is ballast. Higher values generally mean better initial stability and stiffer sail carrying.
30–35% — Typical cruiser35–45% — Stiff performance boatOver 45% — Racing oriented
 38.46
Displacement/Length Displacement to Length ratio measures how heavy a boat is relative to its waterline length. Lower values mean a lighter, faster boat.
Under 100 — Ultralight racer100–200 — Light cruiser/racer200–300 — Moderate cruiser300–400 — Heavy cruiserOver 400 — Very heavy
 227.48
Comfort Ratio Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio predicts how comfortable a boat will feel in offshore conditions. Higher values mean a steadier, more comfortable motion in a seaway.
Under 20 — Uncomfortably rough20–30 — Acceptable coastal30–40 — Good offshore comfortOver 40 — Very comfortable offshore
 25.14
Capsize Screening Formula The USHS Capsize Screening Formula estimates offshore capsize risk. Lower is safer — values under 2.0 are considered acceptable for offshore sailing.
Under 2.0 — Safe for offshore2.0–2.2 — Borderline offshoreOver 2.2 — Coastal use recommended
 1.96
Hull Speed Hull Speed is the theoretical maximum speed of a displacement hull, calculated from waterline length. Most cruising sailboats reach this speed in moderate conditions. 7.39 kn
S# (Speed Number) The Speed Number (S#) is a quick performance index. Higher values indicate a faster, more powerful design relative to its size.
Under 3.0 — Slow cruiser3.0–5.0 — Average cruiser5.0–7.0 — Performance cruiserOver 7.0 — Racer
 2.17
Pounds/Inch Immersion Pounds per Inch Immersion (PPI) tells you how much weight is needed to sink the boat one inch. Useful for calculating how additional gear and stores affect waterline. 1,294.12 pounds/inch
SA/Displacement (Calc) Calculated Sail Area to Displacement ratio using actual measured sail dimensions rather than reported values. More precise than the reported SA/Disp figure. 14.92
