    Could someone please give us a hand with designing a planning hull. Our dimensions are 25ft long with a beam of 8ft. We are new with the design of planning boats and we were wondering what principle characteristics affect the performance of the boat. We are particularly interested in speed and handling. Thanks

    :confused:

    Planing powerboat design involves a lot of different factors that cannot be described in a few paragraphs. If you are interested in worthwhile consulting and are willing to pay for it, you may give me a call at the (904) 460-9494.
