Misty - NOR4691
Sailing performance analysis for a FENIX from 1982, built by Maxi Yachts and designed by Pelle Pettersson.
Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) · Certificate issued 06/05/2026
This comfort cruiser is designed for relaxed sailing, offering a balanced experience on the water. It reaches up to 5.2 knots upwind in 10 knots of wind, but doesn't excel in speed, especially downwind where it manages only 4.6 knots in the same conditions. The sail wardrobe includes a symmetric spinnaker that is modest for its size, paired with a balanced sail plan that includes a compact jib relative to the mainsail.
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.
