Apr 27, 2018 · My first hydrofoil has a 100mm wide band of 600gsm unidirectional glass lumping inside the other layers and faired after. Average thickness without the uni is approx 1.6mm and I trimmed the trailing edge a bit short and close to my 3D printed model, I should have cut it longer and tapered it better. However I still love the result!

Nov 28, 2016 · Print some hydrofoil profiles and then lay them on similar air or prop foil profiles and then muse over how similar they are, quickly before you fall asleep or have to make some money. I'm gonna get me a water tunnel even though today was a powder day. R&D is so much more fun in the summer with bare feet.

Oct 17, 2011 · Will a Hydrofoil settle down my 882 Nitro? Chopping water or at medium speed (20-30) I get the porpoising or I plow water. I love the boat (wouldn't own anything else) but it only has 2 speeds slow or FAST. I only know of one other boat with a HydroFoil, a Dynatrack with a 175 Evinrude, and it settled it down but I think it slowed it down also.

Feb 2, 2002 · On My Tournament V17 with a Johnson 60HP I had the same problem.. Its a typical result of a Flatbottom/SEMI V Boat. I added a SE SPORT 300 Hydrofoil From Bass Pro. The boat always planed fast and had plenty of power, but the foil really woke it up. I could trim Higher without porpoising and actually picked up a few MPH because of the smooth ride.

Dec 30, 2009 · the hydrofoil has extremely helped in getting on plane much quicker, stayin on plane at much lower speeds and also eliminating a great deal of the porposing issues associated with weight distribution. it has been said that you may see a decrease in top end by 1 to 2 mph due to the drag, but it is not that noticable i run a 3 blade 23inch ...

Aug 9, 2006 · I've got one on my Triton for tubing or pulling an occasional skier. By boat is set up correctly but with the hydrofoil holeshot is blistering fast. At WOT the hydrofoil is totally out of the water so there is no additional drag. I really don't see a negative thing about it except for the way some of them look. I have the SE300, it's a nice one.

Apr 9, 2021 · Initially I developed WingHopper for my naval architecture and hydrofoil design consulting, using it as the basis of the hydrofoil design work I undertake. I've made into a web app that allows for anyone to design a beautiful wing that can be …

Jan 5, 2024 · A hydrofoil will cut your planing time in almost half. I put a SE sport 300 on all the boats I have owned. But, that being said you need to have the right prop to begin with. The right prop is the most important thing. So, get the right prop and also put a Hydrofoil on. A hydrofoil is pretty cheap. I think the SE sport 300 is around 70 to 80 bucks.
