Description
This is a groundbreaking, technical analysis of yacht design, linked to
the
theory and testing of how a sailing yacht behaves underway. It is
cutting edge - the author (a world expert in the field) has drawn his
conclusions from years of research, analytical testing in wind tunnels
and tanks, and his results represent the state of the art in
performance prediction which
underlies all modern yacht design.
State of the art and with a revolutionary modern approach, Aero-hydrodynamics and the Performance of Sailing Yachts provides
a systematic and completely up to date analysis, complete with colour
photographs and diagrams throughout. An essential, and long awaited,
work for all professional yacht designers, racing sailors and students
of yacht design.
