Captain's Library
Offshore Guides & Resources
Every guide in this library comes from an active offshore campaign — not a classroom. Real checklists, real VPP data, real race logs. The kind of material that lives in a waterproof bag below deck, not on a shelf.

Offshore Pre-Departure Checklist
Eight categories, zero surprises. The exact protocol we run before every offshore departure — whether it's a 200 NM coastal hop or a 750 NM non-stop Pula to Naples. Covers safety systems, navigation, communications, medical, crew readiness and more.
Format: PDF, A4, print-ready | Pages: 6
Paid Guides
Primary source material. The data, templates and decisions behind real offshore campaigns.
Speed on Paper: Decoding ORC Performance Data
Most sailors have an ORC certificate. Few know how to actually use it. This guide walks through every field of a real certificate — using Buri's 2026 measurement data — and shows exactly how to read polar diagrams, calculate VMG targets, and translate paper numbers into tactical decisions on the start line.
Includes Buri's actual VPP polar tables from the ORC Worlds 2026 campaign. The kind of data you can load directly into your nav software.

Put the theory into practice.
These guides were written on real offshore campaigns. Join one and see the data come alive — on deck, under sail, in the deep.
