Windrose 24
Windrose 24 is a 24 ′ 0 ″ / 7.3 m monohull sailboat designed by W. Shad Turner and built by Laguna Yachts between 1974 and 1983.
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)

Review of Windrose 24
Basic specs..
The hull is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of fibreglass requires only a minimum of maintenance during the sailing season. And outside the sailing season, just bottom cleaning and perhaps anti-fouling painting once a year - a few hours of work, that's all.
The Windrose 24 is equipped with a swing keel. A swing keel is a pivoting lifting keel, allowing to sail both coastal and inland waters.
The boat can enter even shallow marinas as the draft is just about 0.46 - 0.56 meter (1.51 - 1.81 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.
Sailing characteristics
This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.
What is Capsize Screening Formula (CSF)?
The capsize screening value for Windrose 24 is 2.33, indicating that this boat would not be accepted to participate in ocean races.
What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?
The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 6.2 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.
The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for Windrose 24 is about 104 kg/cm, alternatively 583 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 104 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 583 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.
Sailing statistics
This section is statistical comparison with similar boats of the same category. The basis of the following statistical computations is our unique database with more than 26,000 different boat types and 350,000 data points.
What is Motion Comfort Ratio (MCR)?
What is L/B (Length Beam Ratio)?
What is a Ballast Ratio?
What is Displacement Length Ratio?
SA/D (Sail Area Displacement ratio) Indicates how fast the boat is in light wind: - Cruising Boats have ratios 10-15 - Cruiser-Racers have ratios 16-20 - Racers have ratios above 20 - High-Performance Racers have ratios above 24 Sail-area/displacement ratio (SA/D ratio): 18.92
Maintenance
When buying anti-fouling bottom paint, it's nice to know how much to buy. The surface of the wet bottom is about 21m 2 (226 ft 2 ). Based on this, your favourite maritime shop can tell you the quantity you need.
If you need to renew parts of your running rig and is not quite sure of the dimensions, you may find the estimates computed below useful.
| Usage | Length | Diameter |
| Jib sheet | 7.3 m | (24.0 feet) | 10 mm | (3/8 inch) |
| Genoa sheet | 7.3 m | (24.0 feet) | 10 mm | (3/8 inch) |
| Mainsheet | 18.3 m | (60.0 feet) | 10 mm | (3/8 inch) |
| Spinnaker sheet | 16.1 m | (52.8 feet) | 10 mm | (3/8 inch) |

| was a 46 year-old, 16-foot, Luger Leeward sailboat that I restored.
It was my second sailboat and the first I'd attempted to restore. I was happy with the results and have been sailing it on local lakes and even sailed it off of Clearwater beach in St Petersburg and some of the intercoastal waters down there. It is quite a fun little .
Yesterday (12/27/2014) I purchased a 24 foot, 1975, Laguna Windrose sailboat.
Here's what I got.....
Good still finished pretty well....not sure if I'm going to buff and clear-coat or refinish.
The has been more-or less gutted. The original are there and in fair shape. I'll probably keep them for a while at least.....after I clean them thoroughly. The needs , painting, and customizing. It's pretty much a clean slate. The original structural members are present and still solid I think. I will be examining them closely.
The exterior has all of the present. Two winches (missing handle,) all pulleys, tracks, guides, and . I saw one guide that needs replacing, but the expensive stuff all looks great.
The and boom are present and in good shape. is present as well. The standing is all there, and is serviceable I think. I will be inspecting that aspect of the boat very carefully.
The boat came with three . There is the original main and two jibs....one quite a bit larger than the other. The main has a series of small rips about 8-inches from the luff, and there are some tears on one side of the out by the clew. I'll probably get some sail cloth and patch these areas myself, but a replacement main will be in the longer term "to buy" list.
The boat has a nice tandem axle . The tires hold air and brought the boat four hours back home, but will need replacing for long-haul trips, and a spare needs to be on the longer term "to buy" list.
The old wooden is shot, but all of the hardware is there. Being a metal worker, I am thinking about the idea of going with a nice 100% swing . All of the hardware around the wooden rudder is stainless, so all I would need is get a piece of maybe 3/16-inch or 1/4-inch SS plate (available locally at my yard,) and put it in, in place of the . Just a thought! It wouldn't be as wide so theoretically that would equal less drag! , and very rewarding once I get her out on the .
Here is info on the boat on sailboat data
Here are a couple preliminary pictures of the exterior.

| order.
I gave the exterior a good scrub down, inspected the standing , washed the , and today I've spent a little time scraping loose chips on the interior.
I think for now, I am just going to try to clean the interior of loose , dust, and trash, and leave it. It needs to dry anyway.
Then I'll move topsides, remove hardware, buff the gel-coat, reseal and reattach the hardware.
I'm going to order some sail cloth and the main. I priced materials and $50 worth of cloth/thread will allow me to the multiple rips/holes in the main, and get her going again. My goal is to get the outside fixed up and water-ready, and then I can on the interior as time allows.
Here are some photos.

| sailor that had more than the Sony Intranet!
The buckled wires in the standing rigging were no doubt caused by by the rigging either catching or being looped as the mast has been raised. Seems a little more bent up than usual in the situation. The ultimate strength is compromised as the strands are now unloaded evenly with some work hardening, but the rig will probably be ok for lighter air sailing until it can be replaced.
The mast mounts to a tabernacle that allows it to pivot for raising. It's very common for the standard mast raising system to be modified by owners - sometimes for the better - sometimes for the worst, to make the raising process easier. It also looks like the bottom of the mast may have been trimmed. This is usually done to remove where an aluminium mast meets a base.
The knurled knob on the mast(?) is some kind of clamp. I'd rough guess it is used to stop the sail slugs falling out of the mast track. If this were the case it would be placed above the wide slot where the slugs are inserted once the sail was raised.
The winches will take a standard handle. 10" or shorter will work best.
As for making the rudder out of stainless , I'd reconsider that. A 1/4" stainless steel rudder will be very heavy. This will make it harder to manhandle and the extra weight will affect the performance of the boat. A rudder fabricated from suitable and coating will last longer than your of the boat and perform better. The rudder should ideally be shaped into a foil - something that will be difficult to do, obviously, with stainless plate. | | | | | 06-01-2015, 19:38 | | Boat: Luger, 16 foot
| hardware removed. No surprises there. There is some coring material on the deck areas and in the seating areas. I did not know that, because I've never looked closely at a boat with coring. It seems that everything is a-ok though....no soft spots and that sort of thing.
I got all of the cushions and stuff out of the , to make it easier to work. I've been scraping loose pain out of the interior.
I've got two "new to me" main sails coming. One is from a 26. The measurements from it are the max of my mast, if I measured correctly. It may need some minor altering but I'm handy with thread and needle and I've got access to a big as well, so minor adjustments shouldn't be a problem.
I also got a used 22 main and set. I didn't need the , but $175 for the pair, in good condition, was too good to pass up. If the 26 sail doesn't work, I'll resell it and use the . Having three jibs lying around has had me thinking of adding a . accents on deck. I was thinking of fabricating some stainless steel pieces.

| main. The owner gave me the measurements of the jib thinking it was the main. (The jib measurements are much larger.) LOL
I went ahead and also bought the main sail from a Columbia 26, which should be the largest sized sail my rig will handle....if all the measurements line up like they should. I bought the Catalina sails and they are in great shape, so I should be able to recover my and maybe even make a couple extra dollars off the resale.
I got the glass laid up on the small repair towards the front of the boat and sanded it today. I'm very pleased. I've got some fairing compound material coming along with a color match chart, so that I can fill/fair the holes and gouges and then match the tint of white and sky blue on the boat for minor but numerous gel-coat .
I've also been wet sanding the areas where deck hardware attaches. Tonight the water run off from the wet sanding, was freezing while I was sanding. Guess that means it's too cold. LOL
Here is the Catalina main.

| Brightside.
First question......Interlux Perfection two part paint is twice the of the part Brightside.
Is Perfection going to give me twice the finish though? (Rolling and tipping)
The next question is about the non-skid surfaces of my boat. The flat surfaces will obviously be sanded with 220 grit paper, prior to painting.
How do you prepare non-skid surfaces though? If you sand them, you sand through the non-skid. Can you just clean them and then paint, or is there some magic way to rough up the surface, without scratching through the non-skid?
My dad suggested 0000 steel wool? Thoughts on that idea?

Laguna Windrose 24 sailboat mast substitute? I'm interested in a Laguna Windrose 24 sailboat. WINDROSE 24 sailboat specifications and details on sailboatdata.com However, the mast is not the stock mast and is oversized for that boat. The stock mast is 28 feet long. Are there any substitutes that can be found? I looked briefly at Dwyer Mast Co., and I think a new mast is going to run $800+ from them... so that's out. Suggestions/Comments welcome... thanks!

 I'm considering taking a look at a windrose 24 ft, except I know nothing about them anyone have information on these boats? thanks for any info or pointers  If memory serves me, Windrose was started by a couple of guys who worked for MacGregor?? If I am correct the hull was a knockoff of the Venture 25. MacGregor sued them. They didn't stay in business long after that. On the other hand I could be wrong. Fair winds and full sails... Not sure but Laguna Yachts's designer W. Shad Turner designed a Windrose 24. Check out the Owner's group at this link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LostLagunaSloops/ several Windrose 24 pics there.

- The iboats forum moderators would like to mention to all the iboaters here that we’re sorry but the website server seems to be running on half a cylinder and in order to post pictures, etc. you may have to use an outside hosting source, which we understand is not ideal, but its all we got at present. We are hoping that the administration can rectify this issue soon, but unfortunately at this time we can make no promises as to when... we have been working on letting the higher powers that be 'know of the situation... hang in there iboaters, we've been through a lot over the years and this is just another rough weather system rolling through to endure is all. Thank you.

 Satisfactory Sailor Re: Windrose...a Boat by any other name would be......easy. Is the manufacturer Windrose, or is that the model?

It takes into consideration "reported" sail area, displacement and length at waterline. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. A cat with a number 0.6 is likely to sail 6kts in 10kts wind, a cat with a number of 0.7 is likely to sail at 7kts in 10kts wind. KSP = (Lwl*SA÷D)^0.5*0.5

This will improve your leverage point. I would look into putting a U-bolt permanently attached to the base of the mast. Put the threaded end toward the bow. (when mast is upright) Usually the U-bolt will have a plate on the other side. Drill the plate and put a bolt through it facing away from the mast.

1,392. Macgregor 76 V-25 #928 Lake Mead, Nevada. Nov 6, 2011. #2. If memory serves me, Windrose was started by a couple of guys who worked for MacGregor?? If I am correct the hull was a knockoff of the Venture 25. MacGregor sued them. They didn't stay in business long after that.
Yes, Laguna was the manufacturer and the Windrose 24' was made between 1974 and 1983. I've just have had a hard time finding a lot of information on them. I was hoping somebody here had discovered original sales manuals, etc. Missing a rudder, running gear and other odds and ends. Would be nice to find others with similar boats that were complete.
