Re: How to deal with truncated transome?

[Eric Bailey]

I don’ know if my experience covers this situation but – wouldn’t using imaginary waterlines where the hull is not – give you imaginary coefficients?

I take it upright the hull DWL ends just before the hull does? Is there a reason not to extend the hull? You would get a little better flow I would think…

Also, I wonder if the heeled coefficient thing is a new fangled idea coming from designing in a computer? I never bothered with it back when I designed a couple power boats manually… of course they were power boats…

I am really curious to see what others think of this – good luck.
