Any Experience with Columbia 43?
Not Canadian-I crewed/sailed/ raced a new 1972 Columbia 43 on Lake Ontario and Erie for about 20 years. I remember it going downwind in 25 knots true - 18 apparent at about 7.5 knots, upwind w/ a 170% #1 at 15 apparent about 7 even. It was a pretty stiff boat and needed 15 true to have a chance in the club races against C&C 41's. It couldn't ...
Columbia 43
The Columbia 43's hull is heavily applied hand-laid fiberglass. The mast is keel-stepped. The boat has an iron-ballasted fin keel, spade rudder and was made in both full-keel and centerboard models. "The 43 is a solid boat from bow to stern," said Stuart Swain of Illinois, whose family has owned the 1970 Columbia 43 Rainbow for 34 years.

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
The Columbia 43 Sailboat
The Columbia 43 Sailboat. The Columbia 43 was designed by William Tripp Jr and built in the USA by Columbia Sailing Yachts. Her gentle sheer and flush deck make for a very attractive sailboat. From a purely aesthetic point of view, to me anyway - sailboat perfection. Sweet lines on 'Kailani', a Columbia 43 at anchor off St Georges, Grenada in ...

Columbia 43: Hot racing yacht now a comfortable, fast cruiser
At the height of his career, a new race boat design from the board of William Tripp Jr. was big news in the yachting world. The Columbia 43 is a case in point. Before the first hull was even built in 1969, Columbia had 21 orders in hand for the flush-decked sloop. By the time the first boat was launched, 60 racing skippers put money down for one.

Early and mid-1960's Columbia Yachts build quality?
Look at the Columbia 50 and 57 and then check out the later 43, 39, 34 and their Coronado cousins which used the same hulls with different decks. All were designed by Tripp but the former were beautiful, good sailing, well built boats unlike the later series which gave new meaning to ugly.

We left Newport, Ore., in February 2016 and sailed to Southern California and Mexico. We are now in Hawaii and plan to cruise these beautiful islands before returning to the Northwest.
Major Refit of a Columbia 43
The original Columbia 43 was designed as a racer-cruiser, but was laid out more like a racer. There is plenty of interior space, but it's not well used. So I plan on redoing most of it. Just not all in one go, because I want to use the boat during the summer, and I won't have time to rebuild the entire interior in one winter. Redesigning the ...
