Hull Design and Hydrodynamics

Post by wallace »

I had found my science project on this site, and I enjoy the variety, but the project I chose ("Making It Shipshape; Hull Design and Hydrodynamics") did not show me exactly how to build the boat hulls. Can you show me how to make them or show me websites that sell kits for making boat hulls? (Not real boat hulls; small models about the size of your hand)

I appreciate your help.

Hi wallace,

Some websites are:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat_building
http://www.answers.com/topic/chine-boating and
http://www.simplicityboats.com/modelmaking.html

The above sites were generated by inputting:

"how do you build a boat hull?" and
"how do you build a boat model?"

to answers.com

You can:

1. look through the answers.com output to the questions above and see if there are other sites of interest
2. vary the wording of the input questions to get additional sites
3. on each answers.com output via the search drop-down menu you can select "web, images, news, shopping" to get different views of the output

Note: beware of "Sponsored Links", which are commercials.
Cheers!
