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.

Speed in knots at 20 knots of true wind. Green marks the angles that pay: the closest useful beat and the deepest run worth sailing.

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.

Soft conditions suit it. In the light it does more than its numbers promise, and gives some of that back when the wind arrives.

Where it gains

Its best ground is on the beat once it pipes up, where it does more than its size and sail area promise, and by a margin worth having. It holds that advantage on a reach as well, so the gain is not down to one leg of the course.

Where it pays

It falls short on the run when it blows, giving away time it never gets back. That is a displacement hull working to its designed speed.

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.

At 10 knots this design makes back more than its rating asks on the beam reach.

Rigging

Hanse 630e rig and sail dimensions

A Hanse 630e carries 25.49 m of mainsail hoist on a 8.36 m boom, a forestay 26.67 m above the deck and a 7.64 m bowsprit. Typical figures across the 2 boats measured under the current VPP, with the range each one spans.
