| Can this tender scale? I found some photos of a yacht tender made by Catarina in Brazil. She's good for 38kts w/ a 46ft length. I was thinking she would make a very striking yacht scaled to 80 or even 100ft. I was wondering if she would scale or if the design would fail at that size? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

| Quite pretty on first sight ![]() Scaling is perhaps not the best idea: If you double the size, you will increase volume in the third potential. It is a little like doubling engine power and expecting to double the speed. This is how Corrie designs. Wetted area - ratio of length/beam - target speed, target weight and so many other factors play a role, that it seems better to design a hull of your own and include the design features that you feel happy with. |
