The Miller Hydrofoil Sailboard For racers of the future, this design provides fast acceleration and a smoother ride on choppy seas Reprinted by permission from the San Francisco Bay Boardsailing Association (SFBA) Newsletter May 1997 <new!> Rich Miller's free 28-page Illustrated Technical Paper: Click Here (Adobe Acrobat file) <new!> Sam Bradfield's, Harken Board Sailing Hydrofoil Pictures, Product Catalog and the Harken Hydrofoil Flight Manual courtesy of a current owner Jonathan Levine.

A few people have taken the idea beyond discussion, writing patents and building prototypes. During the mid-eighties, a hydrofoil designed by Sam Bradfield was sold by the Harken Company. That design consisted of an entire small airplane that was mounted on a fin that attached in the centerboard slot of the original Windsurfer. Although some of the prototypes and the Bradfield-Harken hydrofoil were able to lift the board and rider clear of the water, none delivered performance that even equaled that of the conventional sailboards available at the time. Now there is a hydrofoil sail-board system that may turn the fantasy of great hydrofoil performance into reality.

  • CAT CRAZY, TRI FI and Other Multihull Comparisons by Jim Brown
    CAT CRAZY, TRI FI And Other Multihull Comparisons By Jim Brown “There is nothing, absolutely nothing, quite so much worth doing as simply messing about in…” Multihulls! That paraphrased quote is pilfered for the most part from Ratty, the revered rodent in Kenneth Grahame’s venerated tale “The Wind in the Willows.” Of course, Grahame and Ratty said it of ordinary boats, and neither would have, even could have, said it of multihulls. But if Brown had been the author instead of Grahame, his character Ratty might have said something like, “There is nothing, absolutely nothing quite so creative as screwing around with multihulls.” By “screwing around,” Ratty would have spoken literally, meaning to conceive, gestate, whelp, wean and release upon the Earth’s fluid interface one’s very own flesh and blood multihulls. And that’, impatient reader, is what this appendix is about, so like most appendices reading it is strictly optional. In that you are reading on, please be prepared for some sacrilege. Suggesting there is something divine about boat design and construction I will try to trace multihull origins by expanding on the theorem expressed by my late friend Walt Glaser who said (in Chapter 1 of my memoir, “Among the Multihulls,”), “A man builds a boat to make up for the fact that he can’t build a baby… What else can a guy produce with his own body that so closely simulates a living thing?” It took me many years of both messing about in and screwing around with boats to apprehend this aspect of watercraft, and I admit that it still takes quite a stretch for me to accept the notion.

For instance have the later America’s Cup yachts been constructed in this way. When predicting the performance of a sailing yacht, it is common determine the condition that balances the aerodynamic forces (mainly on the sails and rig) and the hydrodynamic forces on the hull, keel and rudder. This involves finding the trim, heel, yaw (drift angle), speed and required rudder – often using an iterative procedure. The process is often named Velocity Prediction Process (VPP). Traditionally, hydrodynamic forces have been found by interpolation in a large, multi-dimensional table coming out of an extensive series of captive model tests (using a yacht dynamometer). In the later years, CFD is increasingly used instead of model tests. Aerodynamic forces might be determined in a similar way, using wind tunnel experiments, CFD, or analytics-based calculations.

  • Multihull Pioneer James Wharram Is Still Preaching the Gospel
    CAT MAN Multihull pioneer James Wharram is still preaching the gospel BY SAM FORTESCUE ext time you climb on board a Lagoon in the Caribbean or spy a Prout bobbing in the harbor, spare a thought for James Wharram. Though this somewhat froward Englishman won’t thank Nme for saying so, he is partly responsible for both—and indeed, all the other modern catamarans now sprouting like Sargasso weed among the world’s warm-water cruising grounds. As a designer of Polynesian double-hulled sailing craft (he hates the word “catamaran”) with more than 10,000 sets of design drawings sold, he has arguably done more to popularize the multihull than anyone else. His distinctive home-build boats can be spotted on the water from Maine to Melbourne, but at the tail end of a career spanning more than 60 years, he is at last starting to slow down—as I learn when I catch up with him at his home on Devoran Creek, Cornwall, where we naturally start with a cup of tea. “Never get involved with young women, because they grow up and dominate you,” he warns me with a twinkle in his eye. As he imparts this sage advice in a hearty Lancashire accent, his partner of 50 years, Hanneke Boon, is clattering about in the kitchen next door, looking for some cake. He wriggles his toes in thick woollen socks, resting his long legs on a low table in the sitting room. Through the windows behind him, the twin hulls of Mana, his latest design, bob gently on the chop.
