Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) · Certificate issued 14/04/2026
This cruiser-racer offers a balanced sailing experience, achieving 5.96 knots upwind in 10 knots of wind. While it isn't designed for top performance downwind, reaching 5.18 knots in the same wind condition, it does carry a symmetric spinnaker to aid its performance. The boat reaches a top speed of 8.98 knots in 20 knots of wind, making it a solid performer in stronger conditions. Its sail wardrobe features a large genoa compared to the mainsail, enhancing its ability to harness wind power 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.
