Carl McHenry on Morning Star sent along the KP44 Polar Diagrams, and US Sailing, which generated the diagrams, was kind enough to allow us to show them here.  I will try to put an explanation of what a polar diagram is and how to use it in this spot, but meanwhile the following two links have some good information on them:
