The Comet 33 is a cruising/regatta sailboat designed by Sergio Lupoli and built by Comar Yachts, starting production in 2003.

Let's calculate the performance ratios:

  • Sail Area to Displacement (SA/D):
    • sail_area_reported_sqft = 696.43 sq ft
    • displacement_lbs = 9039 lbs
    • Formula: SA / (Disp / 64)^(2/3)
    • SA/D = 696.43 / (9039 / 64)^(2/3) = 696.43 / (141.23)^(2/3) = 696.43 / 27.28 = 25.56
  • Ballast to Displacement (B/D):
    • ballast_lbs = 2976 lbs
    • displacement_lbs = 9039 lbs
    • Formula: Ballast / Displacement
    • B/D = 2976 / 9039 = 0.329 (32.9%)
  • Displacement to Length (D/L):
    • displacement_lbs = 9039 lbs
    • lwl_ft = 32.78 ft
    • Formula: (Disp in Long Tons) / (0.01 * LWL)^3
    • Disp in Long Tons = 9039 / 2240 = 4.035 LT
    • D/L = 4.035 / (0.01 * 32.78)^3 = 4.035 / (0.3278)^3 = 4.035 / 0.0352 = 114.6

Now, I have the necessary information to start drafting the article. I will proceed to write the article following the specified structure and integrating the gathered information. One search result mentions a headroom of 1.85m which translates to about 6.07 feet. I will use this information.
