2020-05-30 19:48:25 - Race Proposal for 2020 Windjammer -San Francisco to Santa Cruz
Day long drag Race Down the Pacific Coast from San Francisco to Santa Cruz, CA Longest Running Yacht Race on West Coast, but won't be held this year due to COVID-19.

This would be a great way to honor the tradition.

I proposed Santa Cruz 27's since I've found polars, but Moore 24's, Merlin, SC70's, SC50's, or SC52's (as follow up to Socal300) or any good Santa Cruz Surf Machines would be fun.

Race is usually held around first Friday of September, but any date this year would be good. Wind is best before October.

Thanks for considering.

Santa Cruz 27 polar attached.

Racing the SC27's v. the Moore 24's boat for boat in this race would be an interesting option if we could find Moore 24 polars. The 27's rate a bit faster under PHRF, but the Moore's get up and surf a bit sooner which would be an advantage under usual conditions.

Also a polar for SC72 (?) can be found here;

Checking with Bill Lee to see if he has polars for any of the other Santa Cruz boats.

SOL's Bermuda Triangle TIMED Race 2023
Inspired by the America’s Cup racing in Bermuda, this is a fun triangular course of 90nm, which we originally raced with psail and bonkhoot’s collaborative polar for the AC72 foiling catamaran. Having tried the course in the more pedestrian Open 60 in 2021, this year we return to the AC72, in fact to the MODIFIED AC72v2, modified to remove the inconsistencies that obtained from the original interpolation of the limited data issued by the AC 2003 Principal Race Officer in connection with penalties determination. This is a TIMED race, which means you get multiple chances to try out the ramifications of the revisions. Be careful though, the polar remains a handling challenge with major stall-out potential!
