How MARIA SOFIA compares with a typical Solaris 55
Her main 2026 measurements against the middle of the fleet: one boat per sail number, the latest full-crew configuration with spinnaker, Solaris 55s measured since 2025.
Above the line she is quicker than a typical Solaris 55; 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 is quicker than a typical Solaris 55 on the beam reach.
