Bolido Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Does anybody know where to find a polar diagram (for different wind speeds) for the J22? All I can find is a table with target speed in different wind conditions (beating), but no wind angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't feel ignored if nobody answers you. Polar diagrams are not often used by one-design racers because you just need to look at other boats for reference. You might have better success asking on Scuttlebutt or Sailing Anarchy. Hope this does some good. vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolido Posted November 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 Since I have the only J22 in Puerto Rico I normally race PHRF with various different boats, therefore it is not practical to judge VMG against other competitors. That's why a polar diagram would be useful. Anyway, thanks for the advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j22forum2 Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 You can order Polars for most boats from US SAILING, but they're not cheap ($275/$325) http://store.ussailing.org/viewItem.asp?It...esc=Performance Package&VendorDesc=&Search=N://http://store.ussailing.org/viewItem...c=&Search=N KT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
