In a light East wind (8 - 10 knots), in a smooth sea, the boat is fast, easy to steer, well-balanced. With asymmetric spinnaker, her speed reached 9,4 knots, measured by GPS.

 

The different crews who sail (members of the shipyard, promoters, architects) were all very satisfied because 5,70 Open follows completely the foreseen objectives.
