Grand Surprise Polars!


Promising Figures!
Managed to find the performance figures for the Grand Surprise on Archambault's website, although they were in the form of a table. Quick bit of fiddling with Excel and I managed to produce the above chart. Looks good to me!

It was nice to see that the figures we saw on the test sail equate to what is shown above. So many designers VPP data is a little optimistic to say the least!

The latest, as far as actually going though with the deal, is that Wessex Yacht Sales have offered a decent "trade in" value for Neraida if we want it! Shocking stuff, and brought about some mixed feelings from both of us!
