How KERMESSE compares with a typical Grand Soleil 50

Her main 2025 measurements against the middle of the fleet: one boat per sail number, the latest full-crew configuration with spinnaker, Grand Soleil 50s measured since 2025.

Above the line she is quicker than a typical Grand Soleil 50; below, slower. Move the wind: plenty of boats sit on one side in the light and the other when it blows.

True wind
Upwind-0.13 kn
Beam reach+0.02 kn
Broad reach-0.43 kn
Downwind-0.31 kn

Full width is 0.6 kn either way.

At 10 knots she gives away time to a typical Grand Soleil 50 on the broad reach.
