      Hi,
      Í’m 16 years old and I decided to try to design a small hydrofoil skiff, does anyone know somebody who could give me some information about the basic calculations and stuff I have to take into account when I want to design a skiff and maybe even about hydrofoils?

      Kind regards,
      Bas Sanders

      I recommend this from Eric Sponberg for an assortment of useful calculations and a clear explanation of their application.

      Also, while these are not calculations this http://www.diy-wood-boat.com/Ergonomics.html#name2 seems to be somewhat useful.
