Racing Tunnel Hull Boat Plans

My goal in designing the pro tunnel was a hull that generates maximum aerodynamic lift in a boat meeting the gt pro weight requirement of at least 650 lbs. (boat, motor and driver), and with an expected top speed of 45-50 mph.. Trailer: designed for use with glen-l series 1000 boat trailer plans. tunnel king offers the high performance potential of the popular racing tunnel hulls in a model designed for multi-passenger use. unlike competition models which carry only a single driver, this version can handle a driver plus three passengers!. Tunnel mite is a compact replica of those exciting competition racing boats cleaning up the "silverware" on the world's racing circuit. the high speed hull rides as if on rails due to the twin, full length sponsons..

Tunnel boats demonstrate such exceptional performance because they have a "wing" or aerofoil built-in to their design. the tunnel "roof" and the upper deck surface form the lower and upper surfaces of the aerofoil, respectively.. I found some great info online about hull design, speed tips and ground effect for tunnel hulls. i have drawn up a 1/5th scale plan, 11.5 ft including rear spray deflection plate off transom, x 5ft wide..
