Website that Lists Boats by Make and Model

I am looking for a website that list boats by manufacturer and model and has a bunch of data from rigging to hull spec’s. Can anyone help me with a link.

"Thanks to GordMay in advance"

Not sure that such a list exists and that might be accurate let alone complete. The holy grail of boats as it were is quite elusive.

I would urge caution collecting boat specifications. It easily becomes a research project with no end in sight. The enumeration of boats by mathematical attribute quickly becomes perplexing, deceiving, and easily mistaken as significant with delusions of importance. The errors and omissions of such a table would consume your every waking moment with it's length.

The alternative being "I know a good looking boat when I see one" approach is very unscientific but clearly more satisfying in terms of realization and debate.

Like Paul says, but check out Carl's Sail Calc:

Don't get in that habit. I don't respond well to pressure.

Try this one:

Harken Compu Spec

If you don't find your boat on the first page, click on "I can't find my boat", and it will take you to another page, where detail is provided by other owners.
