Monohulls have a maximum hull speed that they will simply not sail faster than - while the hull speed of a particular vessel may be slightly more or less than the estimated hull speed, based on unique characteristics of the hull, this number is still, essentially, a constant. The following formula is an estimate of that hull speed.

Hull Speed = 1.34 * (LWL)1/2 where LWL is the length of the hull at the waterline.

The hull speed is, we should note, the speed *through the water* - ie., if you are travelling down a wave or with a current, your speed relative to shore may be higher.

A multihull boat - like a catamaran or a trimaran - is most often exempt from this limitation because they are non-displacement or "planing" hulls: that is to say, that as a catamaran goes faster, it lifts farther out of the water. At very high speeds, this can result in instability and control issues, though with larger cats it's fairly uncommon or them to actually tip over.

The maximum safe speed, however, is largely one of conditions: sea state, wind speed, and the experience of the captain and crew.

To answer your question another way: there's an unsafe speed for *anything* - depending on conditions and surrounding obstacles - but the dangers involved in sailing are mostly not associated with exceeding any sort of imaginary speed limit.

This is referrred to as exercising a simple machine called a pulley.

Yes. It means an insulting or mocking remark; a taunt

'Jibe' has more meanings than that: The nautical parlance (nomenclature) meaning is to turn away from the wind, performing a tacking manuever.

Also: to coincide, or be comparable: as in: "The facts don't jibe with the evidence at hand".

"Speed" can be either a noun or verb: Please see the related link below:

An unstable ship may indeed loll (sailors usually say 'list') to either side.

Offshore winds will blow the unwary captain onto shoals or reefs.

Onshore winds will blow the unwary captain away from his next landmark or landfall.

Only that you are seeing its' starboard (right) side.

It is a track that the jib slides up. It is designed to reduce windage and usually has two tracks allowing you to hoist a smaller foresail while still keeping the other in the air. You can then lower the other (or "peel") the jib.

It means to sail around Cape Horn, Africa. Ships or captains that have completed this challenge are referred to as "Cape Horners".

Erroneous! The southernmost point in Africa is the Cape of Good Hope. Cape Horn is the tip of South America, and a much more dangerous passage, even these days.

newtons is a measurement of force

just substitute that for the sign "N"

so you say that there is 895N per 655kg, so 895kg*m/s*s/655kg

then you cross out the "kg" and do the math, not too bad

That would be a nameplate.

Gate is an archaic dialect of the word 'gait', meaning method or style. Thus, a 'nautical gate' is a sailor's style of walking or marching. The most well-known use of the word is in Cream's song Pressed Rat and Warthog, where there is a play on the word's first usage, to the second usage where 'The bad captain madman had ordered their fate. He laughed and stomped off with a nautical gate. The gate turned into a deroga tree and his peg-leg got woodworm and broke into three'. The second usage infers a wooden swinging gate, as would be the case if one had a wood leg. Here the captain's arrogance and bad karma caught up with him as one's fate tends to do.

The hull.

The term is draft.
