Hi,

Does anyone know, are there Polars available for SO37 (2001) ?

Thanks,

Juuso

Hi

If no-one have those ready or not in jeanneau owners specification pages, you may ask from local dealer. I got mine from Helmarin (dealer in Finland).

I actually asked from Helmarin, but they do not have them for SO37.
I also send email to Jeanneau, hopefully they will answer before the winter ...
thanks,

Jeanneau did respond to my email request for a SO35 polar - very crude, though, and also based on AWA (apparent wind angle) rather than TWA (True wind angle). Makes a big difference when trying to optimize VMG (velocity made good) sailing upwind or downwind.

For those who'd like a good discussion on how to read these and also some suggestions on sailing a shoal draft cruising boat fast, take a look at a forum post I started over at Sailinganarchy.com forums.sailinganarchy.com/index.php?showtopic=94382&hl=
