How FALCON compares with a typical First 34.7

Her main 2026 measurements against the middle of the fleet: one boat per sail number, the latest full-crew configuration with spinnaker, First 34.7s measured since 2025.

Above the line she is quicker than a typical First 34.7; below, slower. Move the wind: plenty of boats sit on one side in the light and the other when it blows.

True wind
Upwind+0.06 kn
Beam reach+0.04 kn
Broad reach+0.02 kn
Downwind-0.01 kn

Full width is 0.4 kn either way.

At 10 knots she is quicker than a typical First 34.7 on the upwind.
