This one-design speedster is sporty and sleek, with lots of sail area for sizzle
The MC31 one-design, built by McConaghy Boats in Australia, looks to be a very fast boat. The design is most interesting but I really had to dig through the company’s material to find the designer’s name, Harry Dunning.
The McConaghy team appears to have pulled out all the stops to endow this design with every possible speed-producing feature. The promotional material makes a point of stressing the efforts they went to so that they could reduce weight. They quote the famous race car engineer, Colin Chapman, saying “To increase performance, add lightness.”
The first thing that grabs me when I look at this hull is that in plan view (looking down at the deck) there is absolutely no taper to the deck aft. The boat reaches max beam very far forward, just aft of the mast, then stays there to the transom with wide, flaring sections. My guess would be that the disposition of beam is for crew hiking effectiveness. I can’t find a DWL listed in the specs, so I’ll guess the DWL is 28 feet 6 inches for a D/L of 90.36. That’s light but not as light as the promo material suggests.
Draft is 8 feet 6 inches with a long T-bulb on a very high-aspect-ratio, carbon fiber, retracting fin. I have searched the specs but I see no mention of a kelp cutter option. Having just had a kelp encounter in a race two weeks ago, I am suddenly very pro- kelp cutter. This style of T-bulb would be a problem in Puget Sound. The rudder is carbon fiber and very dagger-like in profile.
I get the feeling that a lot of refinement has gone into the deck layout. The deck gear specification is extensive with only two minor options. The material I have is a bit obscure on deck details but what I think I am seeing is an exit on centerline in the cockpit sole for control lines. The mainsheet traveler is aft of the tiller head. The deck forward is perfectly clean except for a very low, sliding hatch for chute work. Note the low drag, foil-shape stanchions. The bowsprit is removable for docking.
This is a very high-powered boat. With 690 square feet of upwind sail area, the SA/D is 39.42. That is a lot of horsepower per pound of boat. Downwind there is 1,710 square feet of sail area. That’s a bit hard to comprehend on a 31-footer. “Time to put your knitting away Mom and get that chute up. Don’t forget your helmet. ” The rig is all carbon fiber.
Construction of the MC31 is e-glass over a foam core and vinylester infused resin. There is a Yanmar 15-horse power diesel with saildrive to get you to the dock. There is kind of an interior. You get a gimbaled stove, some pipe berths, a portable toilet and a cooler that stows under the companionway steps. As I mentioned, for close one-design racing the specifications are very extensive and there is not much you will need to add for some competitive racing.
I look forward to seeing an MC31 in Seattle.

Mc31 one design
The mc31 one design is a 30.02ft fractional sloop built in fiberglass sandwich e-glass by mcconaghy boats since 2014..
The Mc31 one design is an ultralight sailboat which is a very high performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a racing boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small.

MC31 One Design
MC31 One Design is a 30 ′ 0 ″ / 9.2 m monohull sailboat built by McConaghy Boats starting in 2014.
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)

The MC31 – fast fun and future proof
The new McConaghy 31 is turning heads. Described as a TP 31, it's a smaller version of a TP 52, rather than a production boat. Think a pure race boat that's suitable for one-design and offshore racing with numerous options to configure for both disciplines.
The first boats were launched in late January 2016 and already eight have been sold. Five are in Australia and there is one each in the USA, Hong Kong and Sweden, where the owners are hoping others see the future in this design and build a fleet for one-design racing.
In terms of construction and fitout, the boat is described as “future proofed”. It has the following standard features, that really are the norm for 2016.
- Southern Spars carbon fibre mast, spreaders and boom.
- Integral, internal mast jack to adjust rig tension across all conditions.
- Carbon fibre bow sprit with tack lines run internally and aft to cockpit.
- Carbon fibre tiller.
- Carbon fibre stanchions.
- Control lines, halyards and sheets running under deck for a clean, Grand Prix layout.
- Grand Prix forward hatch with smooth radius for spinnaker dropline system, closing system and pneumatic, watertight seal both operated from the cockpit to keep weight off the bow.
- All mainsail controls led back to main trimmer including traveller, fine tune, outhaul and cunningham eye.
- Vang run under deck to aft end of cockpit for adjustment when all weight is aft.
- Fractional gennaker halyard as standard.
- Optional bullet lock for Fractional Code Zero
- Optional Genoa Staysail halyard
- Optional 2nd internal tack line
- Optional 2nd masthead Gennaker halyard
- 2nd battery as standard
New South Wales agent Andrew Parkes says the boat was designed and specified for Australian conditions. It has a deep cockpit and offshore-friendly foot chocks.
The MC31 is Cat 2 compliant for coastal offshore races like the Pittwater to Coffs, Sydney Gold Coast or Brisbane to Keppel. She has a measured ORCi stability index of 125.8 which considering that the minimum stability for the Sydney to Hobart Race is 115 shows that although she's a race boat she will be capable of handling the conditions.
Andrew Parkes says, “The MC 31 is designed as a modern, fun, fast and functional race boat. The reaction to the boat at Sydney International Boat Show was extremely positive and a number of test sails are booked for potential buyers from Western Australia, NSW and Queensland. The extremely high level of standard specification and the pedigree and reputation of McConaghy Boats really impressed potential purchasers.
“The Australian Circuit is still being planned, but the Sydney Harbour Regatta, Sail Port Stephens and a number of Sprint Series are confirmed for the coming season.”
