| planing cat foil design is there any advantage to having a v shaped foil over a straight one underneath a planing assymetrical powercat? is there any set place for placing rear foils on a such cat and is there a ideal length for rear foils? sean  |

| sorry but i have another question, i can understand how a foil is great in calm weather and small chop getting you up on the plane easier and therefore making a boat more fuel efficient but how do they handle the rough stuff doesnt having a big board stetched across the middle of the hulls become a bit of a negative in terms of bouncing off waves at speed? sean |
