    Does anyone know of a web reference which lists all (or at least, most) of the acronyms used for boat design? These would include things like LCB, VCG, etc as well as I,J, E and so on.

    My texts have these acronyms, but they span several volumes and it's a pain (due to a short attention span) to have to dig through all of these just to find out what VCB is, for example.

    I suppose if something like this isn't floating around out there, I'll have to put it together myself. :p

    Cheers,

    Rick

    Thanks dude. I should have tried his site first. He's a Westlawn Grad. Very useful stuff there.

    Gary, it was hotter than Florida this weekend! Now it's 66. And there you have it.

    I just heard someone make the comment here, "Summer's just about shot."

    Like someone killed it.
