Bernoulli Would Be Proud, Beneteau Is!
Using a venturi to get maximum sail performance is genius!
And the 35s5 does it! GENIUS! The cabin profile on the deck is smooth and well designed. In fact, it's a very efficient semi planar nozzle design. The airflow over the deck is designed to have maximum velocity and minimum pressure right at the leading edge of the mainsail. This drastically improves sail efficiency. DRASTICALLY! This means enhanced light air performance! Don't believe me? Well take a look at a car. Where is the most drag? It's on the underside. A well designed car has a smoooth underbody. A well designed sailboat uses the deck shape to increase airflow over the sail, especially close to the water surface where the boundary layer is. This means less twist needed in the sail! This means more drive in the sail! This means the 35s5 is a very efficient design! |

That is only with the sails. The 35s5 cabin roof shape is the same as adding
a third sail! Amen! "J Beck" wrote in message ... "Bob Crantz" wrote in message nk.net... Using a venturi to get maximum sail performance is genius All sloop rigged sailboats do!!!!

Sorry Lubber;
The Main driving force on a sailboat is Newton's Law. (Action-Reaction) You need to upgrade your knowledge. As starter, Explain the driving force of a down wind sailing boat. Bernoulli isn't there! All Newton's Law. |

Lay off the egg nog and merry christmas to you too! Amen! |
