Inspired by Racing Yachts, Transonic Hulls to Add Stealth to Navy SEAL Boats.

Monday, September 28th, 2009

Aerospace engineer A. Calderon had been testing with high-speed yacht designs during America’s Cup sailing race, and began experimenting with different means of wake reduction around a vessel’s bow, stern and sides as it passes through water.  A large wake grows as the boat moves, and it drains fuel by increasing drag.

By producing a covert, fuel-efficient vessel, Navy SEAL teams would benefit by approaching stealthily from a less bouncy ride.  The  less rocky of a trip, the better physical condition the SEAL officers are in.  A sleek hull design sets a new standard for efficient and streamlined nautical design.

Calderon’s concept has a bow shaped like an acute-angled V, which slices through water like a hot knife through butter, and nearly eliminates the wake sideways and under the boat.  Prototype tests of the concept, named the transonic hull, were performed with a 20-foot fiberglass-and-wood model and showed 28-28 percent less drag than even America’s Cup yachts that are already significantly streamlined.  This new concept could provide an improved fuel efficiency level by about 30 percent.  Amazingly, this vessel cut through four-foot waves without so much as a bounce.

Yacht Race Champions Bow Out of Next Year’s Race

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

After winning the Volvo Ocean Race in 2008-2009, Sweden’s Ericsson team decided against participating in the next race. Finding the victory to be a perfect ending to the team’s previous involvement in the event, the team found it to be a good time to move onto something new.

Ericsson had the largest budget of all teams in that particular race, and had a second yacht, the Ericsson 3, entered in the race as well, coming in 4th place.  The victor Ericsson 4 yacht was led by Torben Grael of Brazil.

Deciding to no longer participate in the Volvo Ocean Race was a difficult one for Ericsson, as the feedback and experience for them was worthwhile.  However, they find this time to take a moment and seek out new adventures.

Organizers of the next Volvo Race, set to begin at the end of 2011, anticipate a dozen competitors to enter.  The next race will begin in eastern Spain, near Alicante, which is where the Volvo headquarters is currently located.  So far, just a Brazilian team has signed up to race in 2011.  In March of 2010, the route for the next race will be announced.
