A Ballast/Displacement ratio of 40 or more translates into a stiffer, more powerful boat that will be better able to stand up to the wind. Team goals scored and team goals conceded show the percentage of games that Fortuna Sittard or SC Telstar has managed to score or concede a goal in their last games in the last 2 months. Stats

The lower a boat’s Displacement/Length (LWL) ratio, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed.

First four stats shown in the table illustrate the total number of goals scored in each football match when the team played.For example if team has 100% for over 0.5 goals, that means that at least 1 goal has been scored in their game. The UK TELSTAR production was somewhere around 200 boats - first there was the TELSTAR 26 and around 1977 the TELSTAR 8m, which featured a fatter/roomier main hull. There was also a TELSTAR 35 and a version of the 8m which had outer hulls which pulled in close to the main hull while the boat was in the water, but few were built. Tony emigrated to the US and set up Performance Cruising in Maryland. There may have been 10 TELSTARS built in the US in late 1980 to mid-1981 (serial numbers 250 through 259 or 260). The factory burned down in mid-1981, and all molds were lost (Tony started building the GEMINI catamarans after the fire). This is a ratio created by Ted Brewer as a measure of motion comfort. It provides a reasonable comparison between yachts of similar size and type. It is based on the fact that the faster the motion the more upsetting it is to the average person. Consider, though, that the typical summertime coastal cruiser will rarely encounter the wind and seas that an ocean going yacht will meet.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam The table below shows the extended goals stats for Fortuna Sittard and SC Telstar . The percentage numbers show the games with specific stats compared to the total games played by each team. The TELSTAR was designed and built by Tony Smith in Britain from the early 70's through about 1980.The first half goals section specifies if there has been a goal or a number of goals scored in the first half of the match.
