    Hello Fellow Boaters and Designers.

    We are looking for feed back on DELTA PAD BOTTOMS on Power Boats.

    Over the last few years we have been able to improve the Proformance of nearly all our designs using this simple feature.

    I am looking for Data that may help in this area as all our work has been trial and error so far.
    I us Hullform an Australian Design Program and all the Drag results are so close its hard to see any real positives using it.

    Does anyone else use this feature on their HULL’S?

    Note all hulls built this way to date are ALLOY.

    Cheers Specmar.Aus :)
