What is VPP or Velocity Prediction Program? Have you ever wondered how much faster your yacht would go if you increase the length of your mast with 3 feet? Or have you considered to decrease the water tank with 3 gallons to save weight and increase speed? A Velocity prediction Program can help you with that kind of answers. A VPP is a program that takes into account a limited number of parameters from your yacht and makes a velocity calculation for a number of wind situations. The result is then presented in a so called Polar diagram. Our Strategy Techsail beleves that future advances in sciense around sailing should be available in a simple way without the need of being a yacht designer. We are doing our best to include new knowledge and algorithms in our software to help you in your analysis. Our Vision Our vision is that everyone interested in performance of sailing yachts, should have the possibility to make simple analysis with a PC.
