Hero InCognito - NOR2595
Sailing performance analysis for a 1/2 TON ONE OFF from 1980, built by Hero and designed by EdDubois.
Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC)
This pure racer excels with its strong performance across various conditions. It reaches an impressive 7.6 knots in fresh winds and can hit 10.2 knots in strong winds, showcasing its speed capability. Upwind, it maintains a solid pace at 5.9 knots in 10 knots of wind. The symmetric spinnaker is modest for its size, and the sail plan is well-balanced, with a jib that complements the mainsail effectively.
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.
