About the Sun Fast 3200

The Sun Fast 3200 is a performance racer/cruiser with a length overall of 9.79 meters. The polar data on this page is the median Velocity Prediction Program (VPP) output across 43 ORC certificates for this model — a real-world fleet average rather than a single boat's rating.

The polar diagram shows target boat speeds ranging from 4.1 knots to 10.1 knots across various wind conditions and angles. Use these targets to benchmark your upwind beat angle and downwind run angle, then check how your real sailing compares.
