How HAKUNA MATATA compares with a typical Bavaria 44
Her main 2025 measurements against the middle of the fleet: one boat per sail number, the latest full-crew configuration with spinnaker, Bavaria 44s measured since 2025.
Above the line she is quicker than a typical Bavaria 44; below, slower. Move the wind: plenty of boats sit on one side in the light and the other when it blows.
Full width is 0.4 kn either way.
At 10 knots she gives away time to a typical Bavaria 44 on the beam reach.
