Mooring fees do not matter to me as where I am going to moor my boat its totally free! You dont need to do without 240 AC mains on ANY boat...
I afraid the claims he gave for a Kort nozzle increasing the efficiency of an open propeller by 50%-70% are wildly exagerated! An open propeller...
Cheap ways to improve efficiency... Oh yes there are,...buy a USED Diesel engine for a start! :) A used, running Diesel engine with low...
I think your right, and I could'nt afford to patent any of my ideas anyway! So...here is a sketch showing my two designs:...
LOL!...I cant believe it took him four years to create that!!!, when my design only took about 4 seconds! :D BTW, I have already considered...
Hi I dont know any other way to say this- I am very poor! :( ...You see due to some Euro-nonsence, called: "the workers time directive", my...
Blimey, someone else had the same idea!....Almost exactly what I had imagined it should look like too! Looks like I was right then, so I may...
I had an idea that might increase the efficiency of the outboard chine flats on a fast planing hull. The water that sprays horizontally off to...
Whats making it float..... The thing thats making it float is called "The Byfield-Brown effect", which, to put it simply, is the tendancy of...
It depends how long you plan to have the boat and how much you are going to use it. If you build a boat, and in this case its a small fast sports...
He didnt sound like someone who was skilled at boatbuilding, more like someone who had a dream and had no idea of how to fufill it. I was mearly...
Boats, Ships and even spacecraft....In fact NASA are currently looking into using one or more gyroscopes to control the pitch and attitude of...
And lets not forget the mechanical equivalent... ...Of T.T. Browns electro-kinetic apperatus,...Sandy Kidds gyroscopic propulsion device:...
As far as I know the best propeller designs to date have a maximum efficieny of only 70 %....Add a Kort nozzle and you can claw back up to 17 %...
50 million dollar super yachts hull are well protected they are never bare aluminium! Regards Aquatek
Planning a boat..... Hi ihallenius I think you need to start with the basic of boat building before you rush into something that will put you...
The idea of using a Dolphin type fin for propulsion is certainly not new and indeed it was patented back in the 1980's. I saw the device being...
