The formula to calculate the Boat Speed (S) is:
S=10.34×(WLSWLM)−10.34
Where:
A boat's speed is the velocity at which a boat is traveling based on its waterline while moving and stopping.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
S=10.34×(3025)−10.34
S=10.34×1.2−10.34=12.408−10.34=2.07 knots
The Boat Speed (S) is 2.07 knots.
