Polar Diagrams for the E35-3

[Dave Topolski]

I recently finished a book by John Heyes titled "Winning Races" . One of the many things he introduced me to was the polar diagram. Has anyone seen or obtained a copy for our Ericson 35-3's? Our boat is at Ventura, CA. It's a 1986, hull # 240, her name is Seabird. Any information you can share will be appreciated. Dave

I got a complete set for my 35-3 from US Sailing. You need to join and then give them the particulars about your vessel, sail size, draft, length, and beam, etc. Then I have the Raytech Navigator 5.0 and I can adjust the polars as I sail. Makes a nice package.
