Berenike - NOR15678
Sailing performance analysis for a Elan 410 from 2007, built by Elan and designed by Humphreys.
Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) · Certificate issued 23/04/2026
The Elan 410, designed by Humphreys, is a cruiser-racer that balances comfort with performance. It reaches 6.6 knots upwind in 10 knots of wind, showcasing its capability on a close-hauled course. Downwind, the large symmetric spinnaker adds power, allowing speeds of 5.8 knots in the same wind conditions. The sail plan is well-balanced with a generous spinnaker and a jib proportionate to the mainsail, making it versatile across different points of sail.
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.
