The OUT95
has a tremendous performance advantage over its
contemporaries, upwind it is between 22 to 34% faster than a
Mumm
30 with speeds of up to 10 knots and downwind 57 to 81% faster
with over 25 knots predicted. In light winds the OUT95 still
won’t stand still easily achieving speeds over twice that of
the
wind!
The OUT95 has a low wetted surface area narrow entry low
resistance
hull form with a lifting fin and bulb keel and cassette rudder. The rig
takes advantage of the wide staying base with a stayed rotating wing
mast. It has low sheet loads with a fully battened square top mainsail,
small headsails and an asymmetric spinnaker.
The boat is a very flexible all round racing machine, very
manoeuvrable, fast in a straight line and accelerates quickly for every
degree off the wind.
