[C38] Polars on the website

[Larry Malmberg]

Well Charles, we have never measured our heel nor do we have a device to do
so.  So, anyone have some input here?  I'm quite sure Steve S is going to
heel well in the Trans Pac though, maybe even knock down, that is if he gets
out of the slip with his new 26 inch prop that our diver is going to install
for him in Rainbow Harbor.
 





Best regards,
Team Hassle

I have just uploaded the promised Polars to the Members area of the website.
It is in the Racing section even though it will help all of us whether
cruising or racing.  It is surprising how much this helps course plotting
and best VMG.   All the calculations are here including tables and extra
plots so you can develop your own given modifications made.  

There is also a good discussion and calculation of Static Stability which
buttresses our discussion a short time ago.    While it mathematically says
we can safely heel 61 degrees.... I am not going to test this!  Perhaps that
is something our Transpac folks could test and report on?

Steve, will do while you are in your slip in Rainbow Harbor, just keep in
mind not to put the 26 inch prop on until you are ready to leave your slip
for the start line.

Larry, I don't have any nice pics of my transom if you could be so kind as
to snap a few for me along the course J
