In the last few entries, I've covered the construction of the framework and hull for the Almaguin 400 test model, the towing rig, and some videos of the boat's behaviour. In this final episode of the series, we'll take a detailed look at what we've learned about this boat's behaviour from the model tests.
Previous posts on model testing the Almaguin have looked at the construction of the framework and the hull surface. Today, we'll take a look at the towing rig. But first, the close-to-finished model:
In the last post on model testing the Almaguin utility runabouts, I left off at the joining of the side panels and the bulkheads. Today, I'll describe the next steps in the construction process: adding the panels that form the double V of the running surface, and fairing the whole thing smooth.
