![]() DSK wrote: http://www.vacantisw.com/foildesign.htm actual intelligent discussion of keel design, the various factors influencing how keels work, and a very clear explanation of the Reynolds number. I suggest that certain people read it very very studiously to find the answer as to whether wing keels lift the boat. Yes or no? DSK Someone think at 8 kt a lead wing is going to provide lift? Would both side of the wing provide equal lift on a heel? Wouldent that cause the boat to heel more? I know nothing about winged keels. I just thought it was a better way to put weight down low and keeping a shallow draft. Sorta like thoses boats that have two keels. Joe |
