small tunnel hull boat plans
In addition, its small size makes both transportation and clean up a breeze. the unique tunnel hull design of our boats is based upon principles developed in the hydroplane industry. the dual-sponson tunnel hull traps air coming in from the bow and compresses it towards the stern, causing you to ride on a cushion of air. Tunnel boats fly over the water on the lift created by their airfoil-shaped hulls and the air trapped and compressed between their sponsons. plus, they turn sharper than any other vehicle on water or land. the fastest outboard boats in the world are tunnels. but you don't have to be a champboat driver or formula 1 racer to enjoy a tunnelboat. I recently bought a 17' alumacraft tunnel hull with a 75 hp evinrude e-tec (not a jet). i bought it to run in rivers and shallow water. the motor sits about 7-8'' below the boat which seems pretty low.
small tunnel hull boat plans The first dillon racing boats were created in 2006 to fill a gap in the boat plans market for small tunnel and v-bottom boats eligible for nationally sanctioned racing. the earliest designs were intended for two-cylinder power in the 25hp to 40hp range. more recently, the design collection has extended into the 40hp to 80hp range. These are tunnel hulls that can be built on a small budget and perform better than most carbon fiber machines. there are also several 18’ skinny water hulls available: the texas sled 18’ (tx18) is an inverted “v” hickman sled type; the newly designed laguna madre 18' (lm18); and the ever-popular flats stalker 18 (fs18).
