We tend to use/spec a lot of products from Pyrotek, such as: Fire Retardant Vinyl, Fire Resistant Vinyl | Pyrotek...
No, not at all. One never stops learning and reading... Well, yes. Put it into context, and don't over think it. So, can you control the...
Alternatively, just cut the boat in half, at roughly the midship section - if there is a section that is common to aft and fore sections...and...
The problem is Design is holistic, it is not an absolute. As noted nicely here by JEH: And that's the crux of it. In your attempt to perfect or...
Hi laukejas, Hmmm…I think you have fallen into the trap that most armatures do. Assuming there is some magic or black art related to hull design...
Yes, (i recognise it) but id need to dig it out of my many 1000's of papers I have. What is the significance of time...since there are endless...
That's where you need to start to learn the subject, and one liners will no longer provide you with what you seek. It is not a 5 second search on...

That is because you are too heavy for the length. Your length-displacement ratio is low, and as you approach the prismatic hump, she will squat....
As noted above by baeckmo, it is the slenderness ratio....a measure of how "slippery" a 3D shape moves through the water. So, in your case a...
The only way you can establish what compromises are required, either way, is to do a basic design, based upon your SOR. You can't make informed...
Ok, to put this into context. At roughly 1000kg, your LD (length-displacement) ratio is 5.0. This is on the low side. Very draggy for its length....
With this in mind, as your main Design driver, you need to accept the comprises needed to achieve this objective. That being, a "light" hull for...
What is the displacement?
Any naval architecture book with an emphasis on resistance and propulsion will cover the topic. What you can see below is the total resistance...
