Hunter Legend 240 polar settings

[Gypsy Legend]

Hi , I've just fitted an Orca core 2 to my 240 linked to wind and depth and in the set up it asks to install the polars for the boat. The idea being that based on the wind speed, direction and polars etc the core can calculate if you are sailing efficiently and getting the best speed out of the boat so you can adjust the sail trim or course to improve performance.

Unfortunately I can't find any reference anywhere to be able to input the info, just wondered if anyone had the data - in saying that I'm pretty laid back and tend to set and forget the sails so it's not critical, it would probably highlight how bas a sailor I am !

Anyway if anyone has the info or how to find it I'd be grateful.

There was a thread on developing your own polars.

Generate your own polars

It's out of beta now. An on-line VPP system Avalon Navigation (a French Company) will do a very decent job of creating polars for your boat, IF you can provide the detailed measurements required for hull, crew, and sails. Hull is by far the most critical and hardest. They DO provide over 250...

I have not seen any Polars for a Hunter 240. I would be surprised if Hunter developed them, and I have not seen them published for boats of that design or size.
