Just wondering if anyone has the polars for the 469? I’m going to give Predict Wind a go and like the look of their route forecasting.

Found it...469-specific. Probably no change, but just to be safe. I needed it anyway. www.dicksimonyachts.com/Brochures/Jeanneau/469/Jeanneau-469-VPP.pdfIn my Raymarine chartplotter which uses the Lighthouse II software, at least with the latest releases you can type up the polar table and import it into the chartplotter, where it will be used to calculate the best course for you to achieve a waypoint upwind or downwind. See page 14.18-14.19 of the Lighthouse II v. 19 manual (https://raymarine.app.box.com/s/8o1sxspkhvf8ev7smk40/1/1327412824/29762702271/1)

I just loaded the polars in a CSV table into the raymarine chartplotters. Now it will calculate the fastest set of angles to steer to an upwind waypoint. Sweet.
