Boat Speed Calculations Wyman, Crouch, Gerr

Hey all

I've put together a boat speed calculator that uses the above formulas depending on weather the hull type; planing, displacement or semi-displacement. There are some dynamic charts to play with too.

Boat speed calculator

This is definitely pretty basic stuff as far as your concerned but if you have time, I would love to get your feedback and suggestions for the next version.
I intend to incorporate propeller sizing calculations at some point.

Thanks
Ryanonthebeach

For others that may be looking I've found the Bp-Delta charts at www.sname.org. Search for The Wageningen B-Screw Series $40. I'll be incorporating these into the next version of the above calculator.
