Boat Science: Speed resistance, hull and keel flow
This summer, the crews of SUI 214 and SUI 227 went for a special testing sequence. On "oily" water in very early morning they towed the boats, to compare the resistance at different speed and also to compare with software the resistance predictions. Some videos of the SUI 227 hull underwater surface where taken to analyze the flow around the hull, keel, bulb and rudder.
