It takes into consideration "reported" sail area, displacement and length at waterline. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. A cat with a number 0.6 is likely to sail 6kts in 10kts wind, a cat with a number of 0.7 is likely to sail at 7kts in 10kts wind. KSP = (Lwl*SA÷D)^0.5*0.5

Review of Spindrift 13
The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for Spindrift 13 is about 42 kg/cm, alternatively 240 lbs/inch.

Spindrift/Starwind. Rebel Industries bought the molds for the Starwind 19 and Spectrum 22, and built a handful of boats, not always wisely or well. They marketed the Starwind 19 variously as the Starwind 19, Starwind 190, and Spindrift 19, but left the boat essentially unchanged from the orginal Wellcraft version.
Boat Review: Spindrift 22
Boat Review: Spindrift 22. An early Jim Taylor design from which an entire series of trailerables evolved. Invited aboard a friend's "new" trailerable, we struggled to find a place to sit in the surprisingly small cockpit where we wouldn't either interfere with the helmsman, or upset the boat's balance. Sitting forward blocked the ...
Spindrift 12
Here we see a 12' model built by Meredithe Stuart-Smith of Castine, Maine. Here we have one member of a family of boats—four in all—doing business under the name of Spindrift and designed by Graham Byrnes of Vandemere, North Carolina. The very first Spindrift was a 10-footer, and was meant purely as a tender to a larger yacht.

Building a Spindrift Nesting Dinghy
The Spindrift is a beautiful boat. There is something appealing about the idea of a sailing rig on a dinghy. Nesting dinghys are time consuming to stow and deploy. They are a necessary evil on pocket cruisers unless you are willing to have an inflatable boat and deflate it when not in use.
