Perhaps, by using trim tabs you force the boat to broach less. Planning hull needs a bit more trim so that it could "jump" and "ride" the wake it...
Observing your plimsol mark, are you perhaps an Indonesian ? This once happened to the ship i was designed. At rest it was even keeled, when we...
They've sent us photos of the boat during launching and test run, some of which shows water line condition is equal on aft and forward. But you...
Thank you all so much for all your insight and contribution. @Baeckmo. Our task is to design the layout to optimize space usability, refined the...
That's 5 ton lighter and 0.7 m shorter. And the decrease is from 32 *edit* kn to currently 24 knot. So, could this boat, reach 26 or at least 25...
Ah yes you are right, silly me @TANSL So, it has reach it maximum potential ? Some senior colleague of mine, while none of them a naval architect...
Here I attached the lines plan. When launched the boat is evenly keeled at 0.7 m, so i guess its actual LCG is at the midship (around 8 m) The...
I accept every speculation to consider and perhaps to be applied if possible. I would gladly share the body plan here but I'm clueless on how to...
Any suggestion for future boat ?
We don't have a contract since you can count this as "pro bono" project. The boat only 3.5 m wide, the space for two 600 hp cummins is barely...
Dear Everyone, We have built a multi purpose vessel for remote jungle in Indonesia mainly used for everyday goods transport and sometimes water...
That is awesome panorama and the experience is stunning i presume. But if its me, I'll ditch the kayak body and go slender with trimaran. You'll...
Have you consider not propeller but fin based mirage drive pedal boat. From their promotion video it looks that it performs better. Granted it is...
I have a problem, and I'm thinking to post it in the front. But I'm stumble upon your post, and I guess I'll ask you instead. How do you weld...
Wow, found out today there is a lightweight aluminum built weathertight door. But it cost thrice as much as the double one. I can see why now
Really ? how it's not often seen anymore, it seem's to me all current tugboats use it for the outside access. Is there a replacement for it ? Is...
Hi guys, I'm in the process of building a new 30 m sea going passenger boat. And from my experience building a tug bout, outside access is...
From engineering stand point, it could be done. But from Economics, it would be wildly inefficient. If you skating, it is wiser to propel yourself...
If there's too many weed in your water, you might want to consider Florida type swamp boat
I've been to india, and i highly recomended waterjet, since the river has a plenty of sand banks, logs, plastic bags, and rocks with wildly varied...
