Salacia - NOR759
Sailing performance analysis for a EXPRESS from 1978, built by Albin Marin and designed by PeterNorlin.
Data provided by the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC)
This cruiser-racer is versatile and well-equipped for a range of conditions. It reaches 5.5 knots upwind in 10 knots of wind and shines on a reach at 6.7 knots in similar conditions. The boat carries a symmetric spinnaker, complementing its balanced sail plan. Expect strong performance with top speeds of 7.4 knots in 14 knots of wind and up to 10.2 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.
