Default RE: Underwater prop

Jan, Are you suggesting a single L for this hull?

It'll barely move.

At LEAST an XL, preferably two.

If you want some speed out of this big hull with a surface setup, you will need one of these:

But I don't know how this hull would do with that much power.


The first step in making this hull go fast would be to take EVERYTHING out of it, including the "inner hull" and coating the bottom in a few layers of fiberglass on the inside. If you do this while you plug up the holes in the bottom, it can all be done in one simple step.
