How accurate would Span predict sailing performance for a 1m model yacht?

0

Span will not predict the sailing performance very accurately for a vessel that small. There are all sorts of empirical equations that assume a full size vessel and extrapolation to a model yacht is not recommended. The upright resistance would probably be reasonably accurate, but the sail forces etc would not.
