Sloco's ignorance knows no bounds!
He doesn't even know what a semi-planing sailboat is!

FOR A POWERBOAT
THE SEMI-PLANING HULL

The typical semi-planing hull is a development of the pure
displacement hull - with sharp and deep forward sections fairing into
full rounded aft sections. The major difference between displacement
and semi-displacement hulls is in the buttocks.
On a displacement hull, the buttocks will run up aft while the
waterlines are coming in toward the centerline. If the desire is for
more speed, both the waterlines and the buttocks must be straightened
to reduce the tendency to squat. A semi-planing hull is essentially a
displacement hull with straighter buttocks ending at a broad transom
that has some immersion.

FOR A SAILBOAT
Rather a function of ultimate weight limitations, the semi planing
sailing vessel has no lifting keel and has a flattened hull section
that will lift the forward section of the boat. Weight and drag aft
disables full plane characteristics, but wetted surface is
reduced.


While wing keels have been given some credit for lifting foil
characteristics, it's a minimal effect on most boats and the flattened
forward underbody is actually behind the vessels ability to keep the
foward section aloft.

And before Sloco makes an ass of himself again, consider...

....That virtually all sailing vessels moving through the water exhibit
some level of bow lift. Attempting to draw the lines between planing
and semi-planing with strict numbers is rather silly, just like the
rather ill defined areas between displacement and semi-displacement.
One could even argue that most sailboats are "semi-planing" but
obviously some designs are noted for it as a typical sailing
characteristic. My Pearson 30 and C&C 32 really ran on thier lines and
LWL most of the time, while the 35s5 lifts and exceeds hull speed with
a wooosh that is as fun as it is common in a good breeze.

is that the same sounding 'whoosh' that you hear when
talking to sailors?

For you, that "whoosh" is the sound the air makes between your ears.




I'm Horvath and I approve of this post.

must you gay up every post?

Moreover, you've claimed many times that your Benny has a low
rating because it attracts better skippers

ROFLOL.............. Yea, that's quite a fabrication since there are
not that many of those things racing. Oh, and the ones that are
suck. Some boats that have been effected by skipper performance over
the years are the J24, MUMM30, etc. Classes with lots of boats that
participate on the world stage. Maybe in the Matrix the 35s5 is a
large class.

LOL............... I haven't seen any 35s5s "woooshing" past the
competition in any regattas.
