JAM - NOR13488
Sailing performance analysis for a Arcona 400 from 2001, built by Arcona Yachts and designed by Stefan Quiberg.
Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC)
A performance sailboat that excels in both upwind and downwind conditions. It reaches 6.8 knots upwind in 10 knots of wind and sails at 6.3 knots downwind under the same conditions. The boat comes equipped with an asymmetric spinnaker, enhancing its downwind speed. The jib is compact compared to the mainsail, allowing it to perform effectively upwind.
Sailing performance as a polar diagram
A polar diagram shows boat speed at different wind angles and wind speeds. The distance from center represents boat speed in knots, and the angle represents the boats angle to the wind. The wind speed is shown as true wind speed (TWS), not apparent wind speed. Likewise, the wind angle is shown as true wind angle (TWA), not apparent wind angle.
Beat: Sailing upwind (toward the wind)
Beam Reach: Sailing across the wind
Run: Sailing downwind (away from the wind)
VMG Performance
Wind Speed (columns): True wind speed (TWS) in knots - the actual wind speed, not the apparent wind you feel on deck.
VMG (Velocity Made Good) is your effective speed toward your destination, not your actual boat speed.
Beat VMG (top bars): Speed made good when sailing upwind. Higher is better - it means you're reaching the windward mark faster.
Run VMG (bottom bars): Speed made good when sailing downwind. Higher is better - it means you're reaching the leeward mark faster.
