"Polars" are commonly used "cheat sheets" (not really) that help optimize downwind performance. Some boats will reach a mark faster (better VMG) going the shortest distance, while other (usually sportier) boats will get there faster tacking down wind. The polar information provides target direction and boat speed for a given boat in various conditions.
