Somewhere along the way, you can say you are "semi-planing" but few
sailors of planing boats bother to talk about it. Sailors of heavy
boats
that will not lift never notice the stern wave because their boats are
getting really squirrelly about that time.


No, Doug. There's no such in-between point, semi planing or otherwise.
I've heard the term, and just posted a book excerpt, but Loco says it
doesn't exist so that's that.

35s5...a boat that never semi planed....it just went FAST, almost
planed topping 11 knots and then we went home!

I thought it was Donal that said it didn't exist?
Or was it Jeff?

IS one typo all you have? It was Loco who claimed the term does not
exist and he never heard it.

Actually, it was about 6 "typos." (if that's what
you want to call it)

Donal has not been in this discussion, Steve.
