Abstract
The main aim of this project is the evaluation of a novel hull form in comparison with an ordinary hull form. Improving performance and comfort at the same time has been the philosophy that has driven the new concept. A normal hull and a winged hull have been tested in the towing tank, the results have been input into the velocity prediction program and the two yachts have been raced at equal wind conditions. The analysis has shown a significant performance edge in favour of the new hull form, therefore the design has been finalised on the winged hull.
