Milestone - NOR10250
Sailing performance analysis for a Sun OD 43 DS from 2002, built by Jeanneau and designed by Daniel Andrieu.
Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) · Certificate issued 07/01/2026
As a comfort cruiser, this boat is designed for relaxed sailing rather than chasing speed records. It reaches 6.2 knots upwind in 10 knots of wind, showcasing its steady performance. Downwind, the modest asymmetric spinnaker and overall sail plan limit its pace, achieving 5.2 knots in the same wind conditions. The large genoa complements the mainsail, providing a balanced rig that comes alive in heavier winds, reaching up to 9.5 knots in 20 knots of wind.
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.
Measured sails
Spinnaker measurements were not supported before this season's certificates. If no spinnaker is shown, that's why.
