About the Moorings 372

Built by Beneteau starting in 2008, this 37-footer represents a thoughtful evolution in modern cruising design from the renowned French shipyard. Developed by Finot/Conq Associates, the Moorings 372 showcases the sophisticated naval architecture that has made this design team a favorite among charter operators and private owners alike. The boat's fractional sloop rig and fin keel with bulb configuration deliver an excellent balance of performance and stability. With a sail area to displacement ratio of 17.16, she offers spirited sailing characteristics while maintaining the docile handling qualities essential for both charter fleets and cruising families. The moderate displacement of 14,008 pounds, combined with 4,253 pounds of ballast, provides reassuring stability without sacrificing responsiveness. Her comfortable 20.58 comfort ratio and conservative 2.13 capsize screening value underscore the design's emphasis on safety and livability over outright speed. The hull's modern fin and spade rudder setup ensures crisp handling and reliable tracking, whether coastal cruising or tackling longer passages. With a theoretical hull speed of 7.82 knots, she maintains respectable pace under sail while her 30-horsepower auxiliary provides adequate power for maneuvering in tight quarters or motoring through calms.

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
17.16
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
30.36
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
157.99
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
20.58
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
2.13
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. 7.82 kn
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. 1,562.33 pounds/inch
