A few items for all to study in the quest for the best possible VMC.

J109 One-Design VPP Info

J109 PHRF VPP Info

J109 Simplified Target Speeds - Also known as polars, we print out this Excel doc, laminate it and then post it right where the driver can see it. Consider these targets the MINIMUM speed, keep your bow down and the speed above these numbers and you will do quite well...

J109 Positions and Rolls - goes over how we split up the duties of the crew for upwind, hoisting, gybing and dousing the chute.

Cape Cod Canal - every year when I have to go through the Canal, I forget what is the best time to go down the Canal from Mass Bay to Buzzards Bay (East to West), and what is the best time to come up the Canal from Buzzards Bay to Mass Bay (West to East). So, the rule of thumb is...

* Best down the Canal to Buzzards Bay 1 1/2 hour after high tide in Sandwich
* Best up the Canal to Mass Bay 1 1/2 hour after high tide at the R.R. Bridge.
