Round the buoys, or offshore

A short windward-leeward and a night at sea ask different things of a boat. Here is how this one does in each.

Where it wins and where it pays

Every boat is judged against its own measurements — length, weight, sail area. The quicker those say it should be, the more it has to deliver just to break even. Going fast is not enough: it has to go faster than its own numbers promised.

It does most things without giving much away. It rewards preparation and crew work more than it rewards picking the right day.

Where it gains

Its best ground is on the beam in moderate air, where it goes better than its measurements say it should, and by a margin worth having.

Where it pays

It falls short on the beat in light air, giving away time it never gets back.

Above the line it delivers more than promised and gains on the fleet. Below, it falls short. Move the wind: plenty of boats sit on one side in the light and the other when it blows.

Rigging

Hanse 375 rig and sail dimensions

A Hanse 375 carries 14.47 m of mainsail hoist on a 5.14 m boom, a forestay 14.61 m above the deck and a 4.53 m bowsprit. Typical figures across the 2 boats measured under the current VPP, with the range each one spans.
