hurley 20 sailboat

Review of Hurley 20

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 boat is equipped with 4 berths and a galley.

The boat equipped with a masthead rig. The advantage of a masthead rig is its simplicity and the fact that a given sail area - compared with a fractional rig - can be carried lower and thus with less heeling moment.

The Hurley 20 has been built with different keel alternatives.

One option is a fin keel. A boat with a fin keel is more manoeuvrable but has less directional stability than a similar boat with a full keel.

The keel is made of iron. Many people prefer lead keel in favour of iron. The main argument is that lead is much heavier than iron and a lead keel can therefore be made smaller which again result in less wet surface, i.e. less drag. In fact iron is quite heavy, just 30% less heavy than lead, so the advantage of a lead keel is often overstated. As the surface of a fin type keel is just a fraction of the total wet surface, the difference between an iron keel and a lead keel can in reality be ignored for cruising yachts.

The boat can enter even shallow marinas as the draft is just about 0.99 - 1.09 meter (3.25 - 3.55 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.

Another option is a bilge keel. A bilge keel is a double keel, which allows the boat to be beached. Bilge keels are the most popular keel for tidal waters.

This keel is also made of iron.

Hurley 20 can enter even shallow marinas as the draft is just about 0.79 - 0.89 meter (2.59 - 2.89 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 Hurley 20 is 2.16, 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 5.7 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 Hurley 20 is about 79 kg/cm, alternatively 444 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 79 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 444 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?

What is Relative Speed Performance?

Maintenance

When buying anti-fouling bottom paint, it's nice to know how much to buy. The surface of the wet bottom is about 13m 2 (139 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.

This section is reserved boat owner's modifications, improvements, etc. Here you might find (or contribute with) inspiration for your boat.

The Hurley 20 is a 19.98ft fractional sloop designed by Ian L. Anderson and built in fiberglass by Hurley Marine Ltd. since 1966.

The Hurley 20 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.

A friend of mine is bolting an bracket on his small yacht this weekend. To access the inside nuts there's a 4 inch diameter hole in a locker that needs someone with a spaghetti arm to reach into. He first has to find the right bracket, dry fit it, make some for the nuts, then find a helper to hold the bolts. Finally he is ready with the Sikaflex gun to coat the bolts and bracket and then bolt it to the transom. Then clean up all the Sikaflex residue with turpentine. Just that one job can absorb hours of time. Everything has to be a 100% correct on a . There's no stepping of the when the outboard bracket falls Off from a shoddy or the boat springs a leak from a badly installed fitting. I already gave you a break down of costs to get sailing from what I found used on Facebook. It's not rocket science, get googling and find what's in your neighbourhood. One thing I can tell you if you want to have all new on the Hurley then expect to easily spend 20k on a boat that's worth 3k.

I could, if I got motivated, introduce you to some things that the majority of this forum's would consider UTTERLY heretical, but which will today as well as they did in days of yore when Joe Slocum circumnavigated the world in an smack he rebuilt after it had been rotting in a marsh for years, and John Voss circumnavigated the world in a "native" dug-out canoe bought from an indigenous woman on the of for a bottle of rye whiskey and, I think it was, eighty bucks!

Search forums Practical Boat Owner's Reader to Reader Hurley 20 help Thread starter PBrook Start date 24 Sep 2011 24 Sep 2011 Hi, I'm looking for a spot of help... I'm after a new boat and the bilge keel Hurley 20 is high on my list. Is there any one in the Dorset or West Hampshire area who has one that they would be willing to take me out on to see how they sail? A bit cheeky but worth a try :~)   Well-known member have you tried contacting the Hurley Owners Association ? http://www.hurleyownersassociation.co.uk/ They might know of someone local to you.   I don't own one and I'm too far away if I did. But I did spend 3 hours on one last Saturday and I was very impressed. It was the fin keel version I sailed on, not the bilge keel one. The one overiding thing that struck me was how light and nicely ballanced the tiller was, compared to the rather heavy transom hung rudder on my own little boat.   25 Sep 2011 ghostlymoron There was a Hurley 20 moored next to me for several years - nice looking boat but it always nose-dived when the tide went out making it a bit uncomfortable for sleeping aboard. I don't know if this is inevitable with H20's but it would put me off.   ghostlymoron said: There was a Hurley 20 moored next to me for several years - nice looking boat but it always nose-dived when the tide went out making it a bit uncomfortable for sleeping aboard.

Click to expand... 26 Sep 2011 LittleSister The Hurley 20 is known to sail well, and like it's big sister the Hurley 22, be very capable, seaworthy and reassuring in challenging conditions. (I've owned a 22, but had previously looked at 20's with a view to purchase). There were a number of articles in PBO some years ago by Alistair Buchan, who owned one and wrote about trips in his Hurley 20 (including across North Sea and Atlantic). It would be informative to you to get hold of some of these articles (purchaseable on line from YBW). He did a review of the Hurley 20 in a PBO booklet 'Which Boat', too. He was very enthusiastic about the Hurley 20's capabilities, but not blind to their weaknesses - mainly below decks - poorly accessible storage, and toilet betwen the v berth 'that only a desperate contortionist could reach it at sea'!. But my advice would be not to limit yourself to one marque or model, even one as good as the Hurley 20. With boats of this age, many will be in poor condition, a few in great condition. With hindsight there have been times when I was convinced there was just one model I was looking for and travelled the country, when there are many different designs which would have done a similar job. Widening your choice will give you more chance of finding a well looked after boat, close to hand and at a reasonable price. Decide what are the factors or featuress you are looking for, then look at boats in your price range and location that meet those criteria. You will almost certainly change your boat sooner than you think, so don't spend too much time or money searching for your 'perfect boat'. Buy something you will be able to sell again if it doesn't meet your expectations, or, more likely, your expectations change. Happy hunting!   PBrook said: My criterea is fairly simple: 1) 20' or less and trailerable (Must fit on my front garden). 2) Bilge keel (I like to sneak up the hard to get to places and I'd rather be capable of taking the ground). 3) Tough and seaworthy (I don't want to rule out crossing the channel). 4) Budget is fairly low so limited to the various GRP small yachts from the 60's/70's Click to expand... One thing is to take each boat on its own merit. Most of the boats mentioned were also offered as kits where the owner would buy either a bare hull or bhull and deck. As a result, a lot of interiors were home built and fitted. Some to higher standards than others! My own Caprice (see www.capriceowners.net ) has the standard hull, but an overbuilt wooden cabin and cockpit which seems to be bomproof. Other smaller boats I have been on seem to have decks that flex underfoot. Try to rule with your head not your heart (easier said than done!) and you should be OK. Also, take along someone with you, or buy a book such as "inspecting the aging sailboat" by DCasey or "Surveying Fibreglass boats" by HMustin. Other books may also be available. Regards Carl   PBrook said: Thanks Littlesister, that's good advice; and I haven't limited myself to one type. I am also considering the later Caprice models but most others don't seem to 'float my boat' It's a good point, if anyone has suggestions for me then I am more than willing to be objective. My criterea is fairly simple: 1) 20' or less and trailerable (Must fit on my front garden). 2) Bilge keel (I like to sneak up the hard to get to places and I'd rather be capable of taking the ground). 3) Tough and seaworthy (I don't want to rule out crossing the channel). 4) Budget is fairly low so limited to the various GRP small yachts from the 60's/70's Cheers Phil Click to expand... 27 Sep 2011 I've had a look at your blog - very good. Wish you luck with the re-furb - shouldn't take too long but hope we get some good weather ovr the winter. It may pay you to put a tent over her so you can make progress whatever. My previous response was about 'nose diving' and, looking at the long section , it seems that the keels are further aft than I would expect so the CoG is well forward.   Interesting blog, good luck with the project.

Sailboat Guide Signet 20 is a 19 ′ 9 ″ / 6 m monohull sailboat designed by Ray Kaufmann and built by Hurley Marine Ltd. starting in 1960. 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.

The Hurley 18 shares the same long keel design as its bigger sister the H22, having been designed at the same time. This, together with a good ballast/weight ratio, explains why she has a reputation as a stiff and comfortable boat at sea, with excellent ability to work to windward. 18 ft pocket cruisers will not be expected to have a spacious interior, but the interior layout of the 18 is very realistic in its ambitions, making it a very pleasurable boat. Although they can be found in the UK, over 70% were exported new, mainly to Europe and some to the USA. Having built 377 boats Hurley Marine built the last H18 in 1972 in favour of the bigger Hurley designs coming into production, the H27 in 1971, H24/70 in 1972 and the H30/90 in 1973. Just like the H22, the H18 can best be described as a "proper little ship". Before Hurley Marine went out of business the moulds were sold to Russell Curnow of Penzance, Cornwall who continued to build them up until about 1979. The moulds were then bought by Varne Yachts of Nottingham who were later taken over by Weston Boats who then went out of business in 1986. Over 900 H18s were built altogether. 187 IMAGES Hurley 20 Bilge Keel Hurley 20 Sailing Boat Yacht With Mooring for sale from United Kingdom Bilge Keel Hurley 20 Sailing Boat for sale from United Kingdom Hurley 20 sailing boat 1970 HURLEY 20 Sail Boat Sailing Boat Sailboat Yacht Hurley 20 VIDEO Behind every great hurler is a great hurley HURLEY SAID NO!!!!!
