I got the feeling we got about all the theories we need. What I'd very much like would be some graphs, some figures, some statistics, on the force needed to move a displacement hull, to make the transition to a planing hull, and to keep the hull planing. Matt, I've seen your homepage, you've done a lot of testing on hullshapes. Any measurement on planing hulls there? Anyone else? Something on jetskis maybe? Powerboats? Surfboards? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
