Randy,
I too am interested in polars for the C&C 30 Mk 1.
But I'm even more interested in what you think of your wind instrument. How
long did you have to wait for delivery, and is it worth it?
Cheers,
Alan

Perfect.
Btw, depending on where you sail, your Speed over water won't ever match.
By doing the math between the two you can determine how much current you are
in and with some calculations how much that is setting you off course. Food
for thought.

I sail on a reservoir in Colorado. It has neither tides nor currents nor
seas :) Except for powerboat wake, which makes the lake choppy on calm days.
And the occasional wind-driven whitecapped waves when the breeze is really
up.
Cheers,
Randy

I scrubbed my bottom a few weeks ago but couldn't see to get the keel (murky
marina water), so I'm sure it's not perfectly clean.

Add a dirty bottom at this time of year and they'd work for my boat too. :-)
Are you using speed over ground or speed over water for your baseline speed?

Assuming I can get an accurate set of polars for my boat this year, they'll
still show lower speeds than the boat's true potential, because I have old
tired sails including an undersized main, and I have a fixed prop. Even so
I'd like to get an accurate set of polars as a baseline to compare against
