my friends i respect your big experience in boats but some things must be checked from some programs like that....this is going to make you think about some things that you maybe never have thought in the past.......keep going

shape of the rigger looks awesome. But thrust me, you can almost completely forget the results of foilsim for our application. Its pretty precise for a free flow over and below the foil, but in our application we run these very close to the water surface and ground effect has a major influence which changes everything. If you use a simulation software where you can take that into consideration and adjust the heigth of the foil above the ground, then it makes sense!

regards,
Manuel

i am totally agree with you manuel.and i have adjust the height of the foil above the ground and i think i am 70% correct to my results. i have a lot of research to do but i think i am going to have a good result....
