Design Cherub RMW

Dans les news du site cherub apparait les premiers rendus du design Cherub vu par Morrison de www.rmwmarine.com .
Je trouve cela interessant car il a l'air d'avoir pas mal réflechi à la chose. Il a visiblement essayé d'obtenir concenssus en exploitant la jauge au max. Une largeur maximum, un bouchain un peu surélever pour diminuer le frottement au planning et une coque toute dessinée pour supporter un T-Foil :

'The hull shape goes to the limit of the rule on the chine width but most other aspects I have aimed for moderation. Apart from a little foreshortening of the bow waterlines in an effort to maximize the effective length here has been little attempt to fill out the bow sections other than to supply some buoyancy for extremely light airs. These fine bows can be tolerated and even desirable in modern skiffs equipped with large asymmetric spinnakers. The intention to use a ‘T’ foil on the rudder with racks extending aft of the transom will mean that once up to speed some considerable lift can be generated allowing the hull to operate at a much lower displacement. Hopefully I have raised the chines sufficiently to minimise the wetted area in this condition. This new boat is going to be one hell of a ride!'
