How MIRTILLA compares with a typical Grand Soleil 343

Her main 2026 measurements against the middle of the fleet: one boat per sail number, the latest full-crew configuration with spinnaker, Grand Soleil 343s measured since 2025.

Above the line she is quicker than a typical Grand Soleil 343; below, slower. Move the wind: plenty of boats sit on one side in the light and the other when it blows.

True wind
Upwind-0.21 kn
Beam reach-0.25 kn
Broad reach-0.98 kn
Downwind-0.81 kn

Full width is 1.0 kn either way.

At 10 knots she gives away time to a typical Grand Soleil 343 on the broad reach.
