Polar charts and diagrams

Hi, fellas,
I am looking for a polar chart and a diagram of performance under sail for my 1979 Landfall C&C 38.
They are pretty common with newer sailboats but up to the date I failed to find ones for my boat .

Any tips on this?

Thanks in advance.

Our previous boat was a Landfall 38.

Cannot remember seeing polars.

Re: Polar charts and diagrams

Does anyone know if polars can be calculated from lines drawings?
I have a 1976 Moody 52 Carbineer ketch which is no greyhound, but I would like to use Predict Wind's passage planning or even its weather routing features.
Or is there a way to automaticaly log actual perfornance and derive polars? I am effectively single-handed so spending some days manually logging performance, esp trying to capture performance over different wind and sea conditions might take up a whole season!
(I do realise my instruments need calibrating if I want to judge my sailing against polar 'targets' and also to build my own empirical polars - but my main interest is in planning and routing and I hope theoretical polars will be good enough for that.)

Re: Polar charts and diagrams

Check out ORC.ORG There are many C&C 38's with racing certs and might have polars available.
