A hydrofoil housing integrated into a rigid inflatable boat.
Fields
Mechanical engineering
Product design
Context
Mechanical engineering project at university during Q4 2019.
Objective
A hydrofoil is a surface that operates in water. As a hydrofoil craft gains speed, the hydrofoils lift the boat's hull out of the water, decreasing drag and allowing for energy efficient travel. This is an enabler for electrifying the boating segment. The objective of this project was to develop a solution that could house and move such a hydrofoil.
