Downwind Performance of Yachts in Waves Investigations into the upwind performance of yachts in waves have been the focus of much yacht research since the 70s. The outcome of such research has been incorporated into IMS and other Velocity Prediction Programs (VPPs). To date little work has been carried out into the downwind performance of yachts in waves. It is proposed that the outcome of this project will be a VPP with a polar plot from 120 to 180 degrees which may be superimposed over a standard VPP polar plot. Dougal Harris.
