Overload - NOR9131
Sailing performance analysis for a Elliott 9SS from 2008, built by Elliot Marine and designed by Greg Elliot.
Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) · Certificate issued 28/04/2026
This pure racer is designed to excel at high speeds, showcasing impressive downwind performance with its large asymmetric spinnaker. It hits 6.4 knots upwind in 10 knots of wind and can reach a top speed of 13.8 knots in strong conditions. The boat's compact jib complements its powerful mainsail, ensuring strong upwind capability. Light for its length, it also shows planing potential, making it quick for its size.
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.
