VPPs

VPP (Velocity Prediction Program) is an interesting subject - as there is no universal VPP software, making it easy to boost the theoretical performance for marketing purpose.

Many VPP’s show optimistic numbers rarely achieved on the water.

Working on the VPPs of the BAÑULS 60, bañulsdesign has teamed up with Mick Kermarec. Mick has conceived the VPP programs of many racing multihulls - including 33rd America’s Cup winner BMW Oracle trimaran, 34th America’s Cup winner Oracle catamaran, former Round The World record holder maxi trimaran Groupama 3 (renamed Banque Poluaire) and current Round The World record holder maxi trimaran Banque Polulaire 5 (renamed Spindrift).
