1983 Renken 18 pocket

  • Description

Seller's Description

Comes with trailer, dodger, cockpit cover, running lights, cabin lights, port-a-potty, life preservers, dock lines and anchor! sails in 2 .5 foot of water goto https://sailboatdata.com/sailboat/renkin-18 The trailer and boat could be hauled by a medium car and is in good condition with new water proof LED lights . It is presently registered and has it’s ramp permit. We love sailing it! I can deliver this boat for a deposit and a fee.

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)

Boat: 1978 18ft Tangerine
. In fact, I spent over 4K remodeling mine. The problem is it likes to drift from side to side. It really does not like to go straight and the stearing gets to be a little problematic when you want to go in one direction and the boat wants to go in another. You better have a good, strong to get you back where you want to go should a storm come up.
It still is fun to sail in open , just keep in mind that you will have to go back. That when the comes in handy.

job I just put on her. The crabbing is a problem...I heard some scuttlebut about a version that was made, but I've never seen it...its a great first boat though, and small enough to sail all the time!

to the quality they once were as new. I have seen many others and they were not in the best of shape. I like your railing in the front and the latter in the rear. The two-tone color is beautiful. I really wanted the color that you had, but decided on keeping it the same original color at the last minute.I think you must have a Renken, is that correct? I noticed the later models came with those options. I also believe that they came with a cover with windows in case of a storm while sailing. Thanks for sending me your . I have many from previous owners, but I must admit not as nice as ours.
Thanks,

to the sailing as my next boat...if I stay trailerable ill go with a 26rk, but my dream boats are the Lyle Hess boats...the and the cutters. I might look at the Tartan 27 or the Bayfield 29.

is the successor. Same . The thing I can't get over is the differences of some of these boats....the difference between the older tartans and bayfields, compared to the Dana for example.
01-02-2014, 05:34  
. It was a good boat that you could take with you put in the on trips. My had blue and white .And it had a 2.5hp . I miss my Rakin 18 it was fun to sail. One day I will get another one. I used to sail it on the James river,York river, and Hill bay and The Chesapeaka Bay in Virginia. And arown Gwynn's Island where I grew up. Alway's had a sailboad & a boat.one day I will get a new sail boatI hope to get a Rakin 18 if I can find one.

Renken 18, 1983

1983 Renken 18 with galvanized trailer and 5 hp Honda 4-stroke long shaft motor.

Without motor price reduced to $2000.

Description:

The boat is a ballasted shoal keel pocket cruiser fractional sloop with a Marconi type sails and rig. It has roller reefing main and roller furling jib. The mast was damaged and professionally repaired. The cabin has surprising space for its size. The hull is in fine condition, in need of bottom paint but is ready to sail. It is a fun and quick boat. it is easy to launch and sail singlehandedly. Loss of employment (and now I have time to sail) forces sale.

Opinions/history on Renken boats?

  • Thread starter rzawora
  • Start date Nov 1, 2008
  • Nov 1, 2008

Hey everyone. I'm a new boat owner...bought my first bought earlier this season from a 78 year old neighbor down the road who was original owner and meticulously took care of it. It's a 1998 Renken 210CC, 21' cuddy cabin with 4.3L I/O. Since then I have found out that Renken is out of business and this was the last year any vessels had their name. It's my understanding that United Marine took-over Renken around 1995 due to bankruptcy. I guess really what I'm trying to figure out is the overall quality of the boat? Reputation of the company/manufacturer, etc.? Anyone have any experience with these things? Any insight someone can give will be greatly appreciated...and hey, I won't kill the messenger! This boat may be 10 years old, but you can hardly tell...he was retired Navy (heck the boat's name is Sea Bee), he was 68 when he bought it brand new, and was always kept on a lift at his house and maintained by a very reputable (and very pricey) marine shop around here. Let me know what you got for me...thanks in advance...

Re: Opinions/history on Renken boats? they have great reputations. sounds like a nice hull, power plant combo.

Re: Opinions/history on Renken boats? I used to have a 1983 Renken 18 footer.It had a Mercury outboard on it. I owned it for several years and sold it for more than i bought it for. It was a well built boat.I would buy another one if i found a good deal on one. I never had one problem with it.  

Re: Opinions/history on Renken boats? I've owned three older Renken boats, I've had '82 and '83 Renken 900 Fisherman models and an older 1978 Cuddy cabin with an I/O drive and 302 Ford engine. All three were great boats, none had any issues what so ever. Excellent hull design, dry ride and lots of room. Renken went through a number of ownership changes in the later years, its always been my understanding that the original Renken boats were all prior to 1985, then after that the company was run by the original owners sons or something who then ran it till 1995. They eventually came back as Sea Fox boats, same owners, same factory location. You can find more info at fiberglassics.com.  

Re: Opinions/history on Renken boats? Thanks for all the info guys. I've been extremely happy with this boat so far. Not a single problem. This is my first boat, but my father and other family members have always had boats that I helped use, abuse, and take care of. Unfortunately for me, they all had outboards, so a lot of this mechanical stuff is new to me. Most things don't seem that difficult though. As for the boat, I would agree with what you guys said so far. I'm happy that the couple comments are positive, I was starting to wonder if the one I had just didn't have problems yet . I guess I say that because I don't see many of them around for sale, and prior to me purchasing this one, I had never heard of them. The hull is in great shape and seems to be well built and strong. The boat shows no sign of damage or rot. The original owner had problems with the original gas tank and had it professionally replaced and the floor professionally refinished to the tune of $2k several years ago. The owner told me that he could count on his one hand how many times he's had it over 4000 rpm's. Even when I test drove it, he was asking me to take it easy...all I did was go over 4000 r's. lol. I even talked to the shop that did all the work on this boat for 10 years, and their exact words were, "...that's all you paid? Damn what a deal, run the hell out of it cause he never did." They told me he would call them over the littlest noise or vibration, and never spared a dime. The only thing the mechanic did tell me to watch for was if it ever started mis-firing to look to the manifolds for the problem...something about they were one piece then, I'm assuming he means risers and mani's...not sure though. Maybe I can get more info on that in the other section. Thanks again for your input...I just hope I can take care of it as well as the original owner and his mechanics did...if so, it should have many many more years on it. I'll look forward to sharing the time with all you mates

Re: Opinions/history on Renken boats? i have just bought a 1990 renken spitfire, 20ft with 5.7l Cobra V8 with King Cobra drive with twin thru hull exhausts, sounds nice  

Re: Opinions/history on Renken boats? Our 1983 Renken was junk from day one. The hull almost cracked it two when the boat was 4 years old. It got a brand new 1988 hull put under it at the factory in Charleston SC, where they completely reconned the top deck, and it was a good solid boat after that.

Re: Opinions/history on Renken boats? I had an 81 Renken 18 foot, closed bow outboard. It was an entry level boat and the previous owner used it on the Delaware Bay in rough--really rough--water. When I got it I quickly found that the deck had separated from the hull from the bow halfway back to the stern. The "pop" rivets holding it together were not backed by washers and in the pounding of the rough water. they pulled right through the fiberglass. There was no scuffing of the hull or other damage so it had to be wave pounding related. I replaced all the rivets with 1/4 inch truss head bolts. That was the only problem I ever had with the boat. The boat was a great riding, excellent rough water boat. It would handle almost anything you could expect from a boat that size with no fuss. The only reason I sold it was because I wanted a larger cuddy cabin boat.

I’m looking at a 1988 Renken Classic Cuddy cabin but I can’t find the HIN on the rear where they usually are. Is there some other place that I can look to get this information (HIN#)? Thanks

Newport 16 or Renken 18

  • Trailer Sailors

I'm looking for my first sailboat for my family and I. I have never sailed and have a family of four. I have these two boats that I have narrowed my selection to. I want a boat that is roomy enough for my family, easy to trailer, and yet still have fun on. Anyone have any suggestions or information on either one of these boats?  

neptune 16 I had a Neptune 16 for my first sailboat(neptune 16 and newport 16 same boat I believe), Luved the boat, sailed well, and was forgiving of my mistakes for a small sailboat. Not a lot of cabin room but overnited in it a couple of times with wife and kids (wife wasn't happy but kids luved it) Have no knowledge of your other choice. But I know the neptune was very well built...best of luck and happy sails

Renken I was looking for an open 16 footer to introduce my daughters to sailing when I ran across a Renken 18 for sale - it had been donated to a church. It taught me a lot in the 6 years I owned it, and though it was a long way from a state-of-the-art design, it suited my needs at the time. A very safe and stable sailer, its rig is simple and easy to set up - which also means that it doesn't have the tweaks that a more performance oriented boat would have. It was originally built as a "Tangerine 18" in the late 70s, then Renken bought the mold(s) and made them in '83, only to stop production because they cost too much to build. I did about 400 sails on mine and sold it for almost what I had in it, after pushing it as far as I could (rigged it for spinnaker, etc.) Because it has a stub keel it will make a goodly amount of leeway upwind, and thus is not much good for racing, but if you don't mind that drawback it is a fine boat, well built and simple. I would be happy to comment further backchannel. Check out geocities.com/renkensailboats/ for more info.

Newport 16 The Newport has a very large cockpit, easy and fast to rig, very easy and stable to sail. Cabin is too small for family overnight, but great boat for daysailing with lots of storage room in the cabin.

Factors Affecting Cost

Buying a yacht in Russia is a rather time-consuming and lengthy process that requires the participation of professional yacht brokers. Depending on the condition of the vessel, the year of manufacture, the quality of its equipment, class and size, the acquisition cost can vary greatly. There are several indicators on which the cost of buying a yacht will depend :

  • Manufacturer, or shipyard - the most famous manufacturers with expensive products are concentrated mainly in European countries, and the most budget yachts are assembled in shipyards of the countries of Asia and the Middle East;
  • Equipment - sometimes the internal filling is made to order, and in some cases it is standard equipment with less power, comfort, speed, etc. In this regard, the cost of ships even from one manufacturer can vary greatly;
  • Ship design;
  • The age of the yacht.

Also, sailing yachts for sale in Russia cost the buyer less than similar motor lengths, but yachts with a history do not always cost less than recently launched ones. Often, the previous owners are engaged in the modernization of the vessel, installing expensive additional equipment on it or customizing the yacht - in this case, the price for it increases significantly. And sailing yachts often participate in regattas, where they can take prizes and eventually acquire a name - this also leads to a rise in the cost of the vessel.

Note that the cost of a yacht in Russia will be significantly different depending on the length of the vessel. You can always check the final cost of the vessel with a yacht broker, and since this market is very lively, the price can change even during the time during which you pick up a yacht.

You can find out the price of the selected vessel and its technical parameters in our catalog, and you can leave a request for purchase directly on the website, online.
