Project Sailboats For Sale Does A Model Boat Have To Have A Keel And Rudder?

Does a model boat have to have a keel and rudder? - project sailboats for sale

For a project I'm designing a yacht must sail in the water. And when you tested, which is doing the same with them as it does not. It goes so fast. The only difference is somewhat more stable.

I must also know how to make a model boat more stable, with keel and rudder. The ship is still as crazy and sometimes turns around and increases.

Please help.

The reason for his yacht behaves in the way they do is that it can handle more wind with it. Driven, in other words, only with water, not sailing. For a real sailing .. that is, going against the wind, it is necessary to counterbalance, and that is the function of the keel. The rudder works only if the water moves over and you can even divert the water. These problems are very common for models of small and very difficult to get the right scale and the veil to make. Hope this helps.

Go to the American Model Yachting Association website - link below - for information for both the construction and management of all classes of model yachting.

You can reach the center of gravity, latitude / longitude (latitude and longitude), sail area, the wind comes, and if a keel and rudder on the ship, like (hydrodynamic drag and thus torque) in the focal point of the combination of surface .

Overall, this is a very complicated technology.

In a conventional design of the rudder the ship (pass the driving means to stabilize an excessive burden on the wheel so that the rear).

Once again, in a classic hull design, it caused the keel to the "about-ness" through the mast (s) and sailing. Having a keel, which in turn cause has been produced from the ship-flow turbulent and laminar flow separation, so that the rudder is less effective - and tries to work in the turbulent "sloppy" of water.

In short, if the trunk is long and relatively thin, you probably need a keel. - In the open water races.

If your boat is small and big (like an old pirate ship) an exaggerated "V" hull SUFOffice.
