How VLADA compares with a typical Peterson 34
Her main 2024 measurements against the middle of the fleet: one boat per sail number, the latest full-crew configuration with spinnaker, Peterson 34s measured since 2025.
Above the line she is quicker than a typical Peterson 34; below, slower. Move the wind: plenty of boats sit on one side in the light and the other when it blows.
Full width is 0.6 kn either way.
At 10 knots she gives away time to a typical Peterson 34 on the downwind.
