How FOLGORE compares with a typical J/99

Her main 2026 measurements against the middle of the fleet: one boat per sail number, the latest full-crew configuration with spinnaker, J/99s measured since 2025.

Above the line she is quicker than a typical J/99; below, slower. Move the wind: plenty of boats sit on one side in the light and the other when it blows.

True wind
Upwind+0.08 kn
Beam reach-0.01 kn
Broad reach+0.10 kn
Downwind+0.08 kn

Full width is 0.6 kn either way.

At 10 knots she is quicker than a typical J/99 on the broad reach.
