    Hello all,
    this is my first post, I'm an amateur designer/builder of custom boats for waterksking and wakeboarding... I'm excited to join such a great forum!

    anyway, I'm wondering if there is an equation to calculate the magnitude of the force created by a lift strake. Any help is much appreciated!
