is it possible to see the boats polars before we choose?

thank you
anybody have an opinion on which boat to choose, regardless of weather outlook?
Also, i can open polars and text, but no report comes up???
The report is a pdf file. If it doesn't open in your browser, you most likely don't have a pdf reader like Foxit or Acrobat Reader plugged in correctly. Try saving the file from the context menu's "Save as" option and open it from your download folder.

HTH,
Philip
is there more info about the boats, design, not only the polars?
Last year the students had a complete rapport about the design of there boat, and the philosophy.
...one of the guys behind the game...
AHA thanks, didnt see that...
Now i've read all rapports, there all a bit conservative. All a long displacement boat.
The only choice is between snail and the best of the rest.... But it is nice reading
Maybe this forum can give me feedback for update of the IMSYC rule for next year... Multihull... or even better, a rule that will generate both monohulls and multihulls...
...one of the guys behind the game...
ooooo.... new rule :-) coool

Ronald - the IMSYC rule doesn't leave much wiggle-room... (students point to prof hehe) like you have pointed out, the only boats that do anything dramatic are the guys at the extremes, but they need dramatic conditions to make dramatic moves. Pretty nice job by the KTH gang this year! Should be a fun race.

The "new" SOL-rule needs to make them work a little harder ;-)

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026


In the autumn, when the rains stop and the tourists thicken in Goa and along the north western coast of India, globe skimming dragonfly climb to the skies (up to 1500m) to catch the high-altitude ITCZ winds and glide south west to East Africa. We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
