Gypsy Soul Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I am currently only a few miles north of the leader on the same heading, in 0.3 more wind but doing 1.1 kt slower? Why? Does the full sail package give you more speed? Or I am dragging seaweed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pianais290 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Hi Gypsy Yes the full sail package give more speed. You can look at the "polars" in down of the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsy Soul Posted March 6, 2017 Author Share Posted March 6, 2017 Okay, if I buy a full sail package, is it only good for one race or do I get to use it in future races? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VICACAPOURSO Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 No. 1 race = 1 pack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Boyes Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 yes, I experience the same thing - I purchased the "full package" (currently doing Clipper) - and tracking my "competitor" same course, same wind angle, different speeds - I have not been able to figure this one out yet. If I go down two degrees on heading, then I get to match speeds - For example, boat heading with 42 degrees of wind angle - to match, I have to sail at 45 degrees of wind angle (and i have stronger wind) - go figure !!!!!
