Hello, I would like to figure the amount a boat will heel (in degrees) when a given load is placed on the gunwhale. This is for a small boat, of...
Easy, Thanks for the info on the Evinrude. Sounds like a good engine. Sounds like rowing is good exercise. Defininitely nice to have a good row...
There is little doubt that designing boat hulls is a highly technical field. It's obvious from the curriculum a Naval Architect has to go through....

As this is my first design, I have not come across the problem of "Transom Drag". Are you referring to allowing the transom to dip into the water...
I agree, and was not looking at the problem that way. I originally set out to make it strictly a row boat, but since have decided to put a 2.5 hp...
