Jim Russell of Aeromarine Research Discusses the Technical Design of Tunnel Hulls ▼

Some performance enthusiasts even feel that tunnel boats are the ‘fastest’ hull designs compared to other hull types. It’s interesting to look at the design characteristics that give the tunnel hull design it’s ability to ‘fly’ and to achieve great speeds.

Whether storing your boat for months or years, a few extra steps can make a big difference▼

With the exception of the the diehards among us, the boating season is over for most people up north now so I thought this might be a good time to outline some tips for the proper storage of your boat during the off-season or just taking it out of service. I should note that this article is about the care of your hull in storage, not the engine and other systems.

There are many sources for preparing engines for storage, however I’ve found that often the hulls themselves are usually put into storage with not much more than a cover. That may be fine for short-term, in-between-use layups, however, additional steps should be taken if the boat is to be stored for more than a month.

I receive many questions about the cause and effects of "blowout". Here is an explanation of blowout and causes and cures.

Most all high-performance boaters have experienced the circumstance that restricts their maximum velocity to less than it could be, even though they’ve got the horsepower available to use. This phenomenon is commonly called "gearcase blowout” or "propeller blowout".
