Can you say lame name recognition!!!

Your math’s not funny; it’s the math some people use to support claims that’s funny. Some people get all puffed up and bent out of shape, when the...
LMFAO Thanks Doug, I really needed a good laugh; I almost spewed coffee all over my keyboard.
With respect, It does not matter if the F-9R, or the F-27 can plane, the boat in question is the F-22 (see the first post of this thread)....
I think only one person doesn't , and who really cares about that person anyway.
Yea thats it...
You know, I said almost the exact same thing back in posts 14 and 21 of this thread.

Thanks, for the help everyone, attached is the foil that I will be using. After I finish this project, I need to go back and get a more in-depth...

Do you know where I can find some online information about Series 58 bodies? I hope to make it to the local university library, to check out...
Right....
Doug, why did you go back and delete this post? I was typing out a nice response only to find that you had gone back and deleted it completely....
Most likely, what you seem to think is planning is actually heel. As the weight transfers, from the main hull to the ama, and the main hull lifts...
Again, Polars are approximations, which assume a lot. You can find people that can never get their boat to perform as well as the polars say. You...
Doug, you can quote all the linear, or simple mathematical relationships you can find that say a boat will do this, or that. As I said before...
For the iom class this is pretty much the general bulb shape from all the top designers. http://www.gbmy.com/cballast.html I belive David Hollum...
Just because a boat has a planning hull or ama shape, doesn’t mean it will plane. Secondly, the numbers from your first post are all based on...
