I believe the owner of the boat has asked and the answer was negative, worth another try i suppose |

best way is to go out in a good wind and just play with it..

agreed, but to make it worthwhile it will takes hours and hours in all different wind strengths sea states and although i am keen to do this getting 6 others to commit is another issue!!!

There's a Corby 29 on the Forth, I'll ask if they have any figures. Won't be till Sunday, though...

I spoke to Phil, owner of the Corby 29 'Henceforth', which is based at Port Edgar on the Forth. He tells me that Corby don't publish rig info or polars because rigs can be made by a variety of companies, and they regard themselves as responsible only for the hull design. Consequently it would depend on the rig design for tension settings and performance... I tried my best! Chic |

Thanks for the attempt, we have started our own data recording now anyway. Does anyone know how to produce a graph in Excel that combines TWA, Boat speed and wind speed. Jamie |
