- 75-80 percent lighter than rod, approx 30 percent lighter than discontinuous carbon and up to 5 percent lighter than continuous carbon systems
- Improved speed and performance, with reduced pitching and improved response
- Reduction of weight aloft and a lower centre of gravity increases stability, decreases healing angle
- More power and improved acceleration out of a tack
- Performance improved by 0.5 seconds per mile downwind, and 4 to 10 seconds per mile reaching and upwind in 6 to 25 knots - a net gain of up to 3 percent (numbers supplied by the Farr office in relations to the 35m Sojana)
