You can ask Tspeer (http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/profile/tspeer.html), he knows a lots about foils and foilers. Or Doug Lord (http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/pro...oug-lord.html), foilers are his favorite topic.
Or, you can see this thread:

For designing and building small hydrofoil boats-power or sail- there is no better book than the new book by Ray Vellinga "Hydrofoils Design Build Fly"
ISBN # 9780982236116 . It is available on Amazon...
